title="Zespół Cushinga z powodu pierwotnej pigmentowej choroby guzkowej nadnerczy u dwóch
braci z zespołem Carneya",
abstract="Two brothers (19 and 18 years old, respectively) presented with weight gain and stunted growth since the age of 10 years. They had spotty skin pigmentation over the face along with florid features of Cushing’s syndrome with low bone density, renal calculi, dyslipidaemia, hypertension, and dilated cardiomyopathy. They underwent evaluation of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenals axis, which suggested ACTH-independent Cushing’s syndrome, and the abdominal CT imaging revealed normal adrenals. The diagnosis of Familial Cushing’s syndrome with primary pigmented nodular adrenal disease and Carney complex was made. Bilateral adrenalectomy was carried out in both of them with resolution of the features of hypercortisolaemia post-operatively.",
