A patient developed reversible panhypopituitarism due to an adrenal adenoma causing Cushing's syndrome. After removal of the adrenal adenoma, thyroid-stimulating hormone, corticotropin, growth hormone, follicle-stimulating hormone, luteinizing hormone, and prolactin responses to various stimuli recovered completely. The reversible panhypopituitarism of this patient may have occurred at the level of the pituitary gland as a result of hypercortisolemia.
一名患者因肾上腺腺瘤导致库欣综合征，进而发生了可逆性全垂体功能减退。切除肾上腺腺瘤后，促甲状腺激素、促肾上腺皮质激素、生长激素、促卵泡激素、黄体生成素以及催乳素对各种刺激的反应完全恢复。该患者的可逆性全垂体功能减退可能是由于高皮质醇血症在垂体水平发生的。
