RESUMEN

Los tumores que causan acromegalia ectópica pueden hacerlo a través de la secreción de GH o de GHRH. Se han descrito un centenar de casos de acromegalia ectópica por secreción de GHRH. Dado la rareza de esta patología presentamos un caso clínico con el objetivo de aportar nuestra experiencia diagnóstico-terapéutica y de seguimiento posterior. Se presenta el caso de una paciente con rasgos físicos acromegaloides de varios años de evolución. Deforma concomitante también presentaba otros síntomas acompañantes sugestivos de posible origen bronquial. Ante la sospecha clínica de acromegalia se optó por confirmarlo bioquímicamente y posteriormente mediante estudio de imagen. Se descartó el origen hipofisario por lo que se realizó el despistaje de un tumor neuroendocrino bronquial y/o gastrointestinal por serlas localizaciones más frecuentes. El tratamiento de elección fue la resección quirúrgica (AU)

A hypophysary origin was ruled out, so we carried out screening for a bronchial neuroendocrine and/or gastrointestinal tumor as they are the most frequent localizations.

RESUMEN

A case is presented of Cushing's syndrome due to macronodular bilateral adrenal hyperplasia which is ACTH-independent as was demonstrated by the undetectable basal and after stimulation with metoprolol ACTH plasma levels. High cortisol levels is associated in this patient with empty sella turcica and anterior panhypopituitarism with confirm the exclusive adrenal origin of the hormone hypersecretion and the lack of treatment success with hypophysis ablation in this process.
