Rationale: Type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM) is common in patients with Cushing’s disease (CD) and Acromegaly (AC), and contributes to increased mortality. This study aimed at investigating the prevalence and characteristics of DM in CD and AC patients at diagnosis and after disease control (DC).Patients and Methods: 34 CD patients (8M,26F, 24 microadenomas(mA),6 macroadenomas (MMA) and 4 empty sella) and 35 AC patients (16M,19F, 7 mA,28 MMA) were inclu...

During the spring of 2020, a national lockdown was adopted in Italy to prevent COVID-19 pandemic spread. Restrictive measures have been associated with impaired psychological outcome in the general population. As patients with Cushing’s Syndrome (CS), including Cushing’s disease (CD), adrenal CS (ACS), and ectopic CS (ECS), are reportedly associated with a higher prevalence of anxiety, stress susceptibility, depression, and maniac episodes, during both active disease...

In patients with Cushing syndrome (CS), hypercoagulability represents a significant concern, leading to elevated risk for thrombotic events. After curative surgery, hypercoagulability persists for several months; CS treatment guidelines recommend anticoagulation therapy for ≤ 3 months. In patients with Cushing disease, hemostatic parameters may even worsen after surgery, independent of surgical outcome; improvements begin ~3 months after successful surgery (Casonato ...
