"Six to 10 months after hypercorticism was cured with ketoconazole and bilateral adrenalectomy, a thymic mass 2 to 5 cm in length was detected by computerized tomography or magnetic resonance imaging in all 3 patients."1.29[Paraneoplastic Cushing's syndrome. Pseudotumors of the thymus occurring after correction of hypercorticism. 3 cases]. ( Caillé, JM; Catargi, B; Drouillard, J; Greselle, JF; Laurent, F; Martigne, C; Roger, P; Tabarin, A, 1993)
"However, in adrenal cancer, urinary 17OHCS did not correlate with either plasma cortisol or urinary free cortisol, while the latter two parameters did."1.27Effect of o,p'-DDD on cortisol metabolism in Cushing's syndrome of various etiology.
