Background: Constitutional duplications of the PRKACA gene locus have been described as responsible for adrenal Cushing’s disease.The objective here was to evaluate the results of its systematic screening in bilateral adrenal nodular disease and to specify the associated phenotype.Methods: Between 2020 and 2023, 440 consecutive index cases with macronodular or micronodular adrenal hyperplasia or Carney Complex (CNC) w...

Objective: We have described constitutional duplications of the PRKACA gene locus (encoding the catalytic subunit of the Protein Kinase A) in rare cases of bilateral nodular adrenocortical cause of Cushing’s (Beuschlein et al, NEJM 2014). Its frequency in macronodular and micronodular adrenal diseases and the occurrence of others manifestation of Carney complex are not clearly established. This study performs its systematic screening in a large cohort of adrenoco...
