  • Title: Oligohydramnios in a pregnant woman with Cushing's syndrome caused by an adrenocortical adenoma.
    Author: De Groot PC, Van Kamp IL, Zweers EJ, De Kroon CD, Van Wijngaarden WJ.
    Journal: J Matern Fetal Neonatal Med; 2007 May; 20(5):431-4. PubMed ID: 17674251.
    Abstract:
    A 28-year-old primigravida with severe oligohydramnios and pre-eclamptic symptoms was found to have Cushing's syndrome caused by an adrenocortical tumor. After maternal therapy the amniotic volume normalised, but the fetus succumbed. As clinical features of pre-eclampsia and Cushing's syndrome may overlap, diagnosis can be delayed or even missed.
