aminoglutethimide has been researched along with Pituitary ACTH Hypersecretion in 2 studies
Aminoglutethimide: An aromatase inhibitor that is used in the treatment of advanced BREAST CANCER.
aminoglutethimide : A dicarboximide that is a six-membered cyclic compound having ethyl and 4-aminophenyl substituents at the 3-position.
Pituitary ACTH Hypersecretion: A disease of the PITUITARY GLAND characterized by the excess amount of ADRENOCORTICOTROPIC HORMONE secreted. This leads to hypersecretion of cortisol (HYDROCORTISONE) by the ADRENAL GLANDS resulting in CUSHING SYNDROME.
