pubmed:abstractText
The differential diagnosis of adrenocorticotropin (ACTH)-dependent Cushing's syndrome (CS) remains a challenging issue for clinical endocrinologists. In this respect, bilateral inferior petrosal sinus sampling (BIPSS) appears to be the most sensitive and specific test. Here, we report our 15-year experience of analyzing the performance of BIPSS, both in the correct diagnosis and in the precise lateralization of tumors in patients with Cushing's disease (CD).
