Introduction: Carney complex (CNC) is a rare multiple neoplasia syndrome characterized by pigmented lesions of the skin and mucosa in association with various endocrine and non-endocrine tumors. The disease can be inherited in an autosomal-dominant fashion or occur sporadically due to novel mutations in the PRKAR1A gene. Primary pigmented nodular adrenocortical disease (PPNAD) is a common endocrine manifestation of CNC.Case description: A 20-year-old wom...

Background: Benign adrenal tumours are found in 3-10% of adults and can be non-functioning (NFAT) or associated with adrenal hormone excess. Analysing 1305 prospectively recruited patients with benign adrenal tumours, we recently demonstrated that 45% had mild autonomous cortisol secretion (MACS), i.e. biochemical cortisol excess without signs of Cushings syndrome (CS). MACS increases the prevalence and severity of hypertension and type 2 diabetes (Ann Int Med. 2022 Doi:...
