Therapy for canine pituitary-dependent Cushing's syndrome (PDC) has primarily been medical management with o,p'-DDD. This drug therapy does not directly affect the underlying pituitary pathology, and may have undesirable side effects. Pituitary-dependent Cushing's syndrome may be caused by pituitary microadenomas or macroadenomas. Advances in diagnostic imagery have allowed the antemortem diagnosis of pituitary macrotumors. Treatment of pituitary tumors may be attempted with radiotherapy, especially if a diagnosis of macrotumor can be made before the onset of profound neurologic signs.
犬垂体依赖性库欣综合征（PDC）的治疗主要是使用邻对滴滴涕进行药物管理。这种药物治疗不会直接影响潜在的垂体病理状况，并且可能有不良副作用。垂体依赖性库欣综合征可能由垂体微腺瘤或大腺瘤引起。诊断成像技术的进步使得能够在生前诊断垂体大肿瘤。垂体肿瘤的治疗可以尝试采用放射疗法，特别是如果在出现严重神经症状之前能够做出大肿瘤的诊断。
