    Author: Petkova M, Manov A, Baleva M, Tsanev A.
    Journal: Vutr Boles; 1990; 29(6):91-4. PubMed ID: 2091393.
    Abstract:
    A case of a woman with Itsenko [correction of Icenko]-Cushing's disease and a rare complication--necrosis of the fingers of the left hand--is presented. Besides the known factors of hypercorticism injuring the vascular wall, cryoglobulinemia was found in the patient. It is probably secondary in this disease and points out the complicated changes in the immunologic state of the patients with Itsenko [correction of Icenko]-Cushing's disease.
