Iatrogenic Cushing Syndrome: A Unique Patient Scenario

Approximately, 10-15 million cases of Cushing Syndrome are annually diagnosed. A subset of cases are caused from medication. This subset is known as iatrogenic Cushing’s syndrome (ICS). ICS affects the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis. Furthermore, ICS is a disease that can have an indolent presentation where patients are unaware of the disease. Identification and management of ICS is essential in optimizing patient care. This case report focuses on a unique patient scenario that involves ICS.
