Recognising and diagnosing Cushing’s syndrome in primary care: challenging but not impossible

[摘要] BACKGROUND The catalyst for this article was the experience of one of the authors whose diagnosis of Cushing’s was not immediately recognised despite the presence of numerous suggestive clinical features and comorbidities. This prompted the authors to convene a group of primary and secondary care clinicians to explore how to increase awareness and simplify the process of recognising and diagnosing Cushing’s syndrome (CS) in primary care.
