#2193 Advanced Gastric Neuroendocrine Carcinoma: A Diagnostic and Management Conundrum

Introduction: Gastric neuroendocrine carcinomas are rare tumors with a high malignant trait and poor prognosis. Endogenous hypercortisolism associated with neuroendocrine carcinomas can have a negative impact on patients' survival.

#1426 Pseudotumor of Thymus Occuring After Hypercortisolism Recovery: Case Report

Introduction: Cushing syndrome is due to an ectopic secreting adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) in 10 % to 20% of cases. Among them, thymic tumors represent almost half of cases. It has been described that patients sometimes develop benign hyperplasia after hypercortisolism correction.

#1206 Two Cases of Ectopic ACTH-Secreting Neoplasm of Occult Origin Becoming Overt After Bilateral Adrenalectomy

Introduction: Cushing's syndrome (CS) is an endocrine disorder associated with serious consequences if not adequately treated. Nearly 80% of the cases of endogenous hypercortisolism are adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) dependent, the ACTH source being pituitary in about 70-80% and ectopic in 10-15%. The ACTH source may remain occult in few cases for many years in spite of extensive investigations.

#858 Metastatic Pancreatic Neuroendocrine Tumors with Ectopic Cushing Syndrome: Could Everolimus Be a Safe Therapeutic Option?

Introduction: Everolimus(E) has proved effective in prolonging PFS in advanced P-NETs. As E is a substrate of CYP3A4 co-administration with ketoconazole (k), a strong inhibitor of CYP3A4 used to control hypercortisolism, should be avoided.

#545 A Case of ACTH-Secreting Bronchial Carcinoid

Introduction: Ectopic ACTH syndrome (EAS) occurs in about 5-10% of ACTH-dependent hypercortisolism and, in up to 15% of cases, is related to occult neoplasms.
