Cushing syndrome is a medical condition in which there are high levels of cortisol in the body. Cortisol is a type of hormone produced by the adrenal glands (small glands present over the kidney) in the body. It is also known as the ‘stress hormone’ because it helps the body respond to various kinds of stress.
The hormone also helps in:
- Maintaining blood pressure,
- Regulating blood glucose levels,
- Reducing inflammation in the body,
- Converting the food eaten into energy.
Cushing syndrome may be caused by certain allopathic medications, such as corticosteroids. This type of Cushing syndrome is called exogenous Cushing syndrome. Rarely, Cushing syndrome may be caused by excessive production of cortisol in the body called endogenous Cushing syndrome (something within the body is causing the condition).
Cushing syndrome caused by a pituitary tumor (pituitary adenoma) is known as Cushing disease. Cushing syndrome may also be caused by other tumors, such as adrenal tumors and ectopic adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) (a hormone that stimulates cortisol production) producing tumors in the lungs, pancreas, thyroid, and thymus.
Symptoms and complications of Cushing syndrome/disease
The symptoms of Cushing syndrome include:
- Weight gain, particularly upper body obesity (above the waist).
- Thin arms and .legs
- Moon face (round, full face).
- Increased fat around the base of the neck and a fatty hump between the shoulders (buffalo hump).
- A slow growth rate in children.
- Acne flares.
- Frequent skin infections.
- Striae (purple stretch marks around half-inch wide on the skin of the abdomen, thighs, hips, upper arms, and breasts).
- Increased bruising tendency most commonly on the arms and hands.
- Weak muscles associated with reduced exercise tolerance.
- Backache that may occur with routine activities.
- Bone pain/tenderness.
- Weakening of the bones, which may lead to fractures especially of the ribs and spine.
Women with Cushing syndrome may additionally have:
- Excessive growth of hair on the face, neck, chest, abdomen, and thighs.
- An irregular menstrual cycle or the menstrual periods may stop.
In men Cushing syndrome may cause additional symptoms in men such as:
- Decreased libido (reduced or no desire for sex)
- Erectile dysfunction (the inability to get and keep an erection firm enough for sexual intercourse).
Other symptoms may include:
- Mental issues including depression, anxiety, or changes in behavior.
- Fatigue.
- Frequent infections.
- Increased thirst.
- Increased urine frequency.
- Headache.
- High blood pressure.
- Diabetes.
Diagnosing Cushing syndrome/disease
Cushing syndrome can be challenging to diagnose because changes can happen slowly.
Start with a full exam to:
- Rule out other disorders: Patient’s symptoms may be related to another condition. First need to confirm whether symptoms are linked to elevated ACTH and cortisol.
- Find the source of the extra hormones: for example –
- ACTH dependent: Caused by a pituitary tumor or, rarely, a tumor in another part of the body.
- ACTH-independent: Caused by overactive adrenal glands or an adrenal tumor.
- Trace possible causes: Ask you patient about use or have recently used steroid medications, creams or inhalers that contain hydrocortisone, prednisone or dexamethasone or nay allopathic drugs. Also ask about use of allopathic birth control pills.
Screening tests for Cushing disease/syndrome
- Blood tests:
To measure the levels of ACTH and cortisol in patient’s blood. For this purpose, take a blood sample in the morning because hormone levels change throughout the day.
- Urine tests
- Late-night saliva test:
Collect several samples just before midnight, when cortisol usually drops to its lowest level. A high level can indicate Cushing disease/syndrome.
Imaging tests for Cushing disease/syndrome
- MRI: This scan can help us see a pituitary tumor, including its size and location. (Sometimes pituitary tumors aren’t visible).
- Abdominal CT scan: In case doctor think it’s possible patient has an adrenal tumor. The scan can show a tumor, some of its features, and which side it’s on.
Confirming a Cushing diagnosis
Dexamethasone suppression/corticotropin-releasing hormone stimulation test (DEX/CRH):
If screening tests show high ACTH/cortisol levels, we may use this blood test to confirm the diagnosis. This helps us see if symptoms are from Cushing disease/syndrome or a condition such as depression, stress, kidney failure or alcoholism.
Inferior petrosal and cavernous sinus sampling:
If tests indicate that high ACTH is causing Cushing, try to find out if the problem is from your pituitary gland or some other part of patient’s body (ectopic Cushing syndrome). We’ll insert thin tubes called catheters into sinuses alongside patient’s pituitary gland. Monitor ACTH levels during the test. If the pituitary gland is the source, refer your patient to neuropathologist.
Allopathic treatment for Cushing syndrome
Allopathic treatment for Cushing syndrome/disease has changed many times in the last decade, but allopathic researchers still have to work very hard, at least 15-20 years – there is no treatment for Cushing syndrome or disease in allopathy.
Surgery
Surgery called transsphenoidal surgery (through the nose) to remove a tumor causing the problem is often the first choice in allopathic treatment for Cushing disease. Surgery to remove a small pituitary tumor has a success rate less than 15-20%.
For most patients, surgery isn’t an option or doesn’t fully solve the problem. Cases in which patient need medication for Cushing disease/syndrome are:
- If patient can’t have other health reasons or risks.
- If the neurosurgeon couldn’t remove the entire tumor or the removal didn’t solve the problem.
- If patient have too much ACTH, but a tumor doesn’t show up on imaging.
Some patients may need a combination of medications. All allopathic drugs used for Cushing syndrome can potentially cause adrenal insufficiency, which can cause fatigue and muscle weakness, among other symptoms.
Medications for Cushing disease/syndrome include:
- Central-acting inhibitors of ACTH: Within two – Three months Pasireotide (a somatostatin receptor ligand, or SRL) reduces ACTH to normal levels for about a half of patients.
Pasireotide should be injected and can cause some severe side effects, including high blood sugar and diabetes, in more than half of patients.
- Adrenal-directed inhibition of steroidogenesis: Medications in this category are used off-label for Cushing disease. This means that these drugs haves severe or very severe side effects for human health or may be on experimental bases (doing experiment on patient), that’s why I (Dr Qaisar Ahmed MD, DHMS) will not recommend you prescribe these drugs to your patients. These medications include ketoconazole, metyrapone, mitotane and etomidate. They target the adrenal glands to lower cortisol levels.
- Glucocorticoid receptor blockade: In the clinical trial/experiments another medicine is waiting for approval called mifepristone. It’s used to treat high blood sugar associated with Cushing syndrome. Mifepristone may improve other conditions brought on by too much cortisol but have some severe side effects, for example it can cause hypokalemia (low potassium levels), and vaginal bleeding etc. It’s strictly prohibited to recommend women who wish to become pregnant even in far future.
Radiation therapy
Some patients have an aggressive form of Cushing disease, and surgery and medication don’t help. In these cases, allopath will recommend Stereotactic radiosurgery (a type of targeted radiation therapy) to control hormone levels.
Mix therapy
Most patients who have had Stereotactic radiosurgery should have medication for an extended period (2-5 years).
Follow-up care
After surgery and if patient is in remission, patient’s body no longer produces cortisol, he/she will need medication to maintain normal levels. Symptoms can take time (2-5 years) to go away.
After allopathic treatment, Cushing disease comes back, even after a year or three, in about a half of cases.
