متن کاملDecreased dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate in pigmented nodular adrenal dysplasia.
Previous reports on patients with endogenous Cushing's syndrome describe low concentrations of the adrenal androgen dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate (DHEA-S) in adrenal adenoma and in a case of feminizing macronodular hyperplasia. Here we present hormonal data from two adult sisters with Cushing's syndrome as a result of pigmented nodular adrenal dysplasia. Corticotropin concentrations were in th...
متن کاملThe value of dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate measurement in the differentiation between benign and malignant adrenal masses.
OBJECTIVE Owing to their increasing rate of discovery as incidental findings, the characterization of adrenal masses is an important diagnostic problem which frequently challenges the clinician's skill. DESIGN The results of dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate (DHEAS) measurement were evaluated in a consecutive series of 107 patients with an adrenal mass (39 men, 68 women aged 15-81 years, median ...
متن کاملDehydroepiandrosterone sulfate in the assessment of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis.
CONTEXT The role of dehydroepiandrosterone-sulfate (DHEA-S) in assessing the integrity of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis in patients with suspected insufficiency is uncertain. OBJECTIVE The objective of the study was to prospectively evaluate the diagnostic value of DHEA-S on HPA function in consecutive patients with suspected HPA insufficiency with and without pituitary lesion...
متن کاملSerum dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate in assessing the integrity of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the relationship between age- and gender-adjusted dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate (DHEA-S) levels and low-dose adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) stimulation in assessing the integrity of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis, in patients who were at risk of HPA insufficiency, including those currently being treated with glucocorticoids. METHODS Forty-six particip...
