	Cushing's syndrome - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Cushing's syndrome or hypercortisolism or hyperadrenocorticism is an endocrine disorder caused by excessive levels of the endogenous corticosteroid hormone cortisol.
		Cushing's syndrome due to excess ACTH may also result in hyperpigmentation of the skin, due to its ability to stimulate melanocyte receptors.
		When Cushing's is suspected, a dexamethasone suppression test (administration of dexamethasone and frequent determination of cortisol and ACTH levels) and 24-hour urinary measurement for cortisol have equal detection rates (Raff and Findling 2003).

	Cushing's Syndrome Laboratorial Diagnosis / Cushing's Help and Support
		Cushing’s Syndrome may be defined as a persistent and continuous state of endogenous cortisol overproduction, not being in accordance with ordinary circadian rhythm patterns (It was first fully clinically described by Harvey Cushing in 1912.).
		Also, it must be stressed out that the term "Cushing’s Disease" is a specific type of Cushing’s Syndrome whose ethiology is Pituitary Adenoma ACTH producer (generally it is due to microadenoma).
		Because so many of the problems found in Cushing’s Syndrome are also seen in the absence of the disorder, we look particulary for features of Cushing’s syndrome not often seen in the general population (e.g., severe hypertension in young person, severe metabolic bone disease, violaceous striae).
