  • Title: Carney's complex in a patient with hormone-producing Sertoli cell tumor of the testicle.
    Author: Manthos CL, Sutherland RS, Sims JE, Perloff JJ.
    Journal: J Urol; 1993 Nov; 150(5 Pt 1):1511-2. PubMed ID: 8411442.
    Abstract:
    Carney's complex is an unusual disorder consisting of a variety of endocrinological and urological manifestations. The characteristic gonadal and adrenal features of Carney's complex should become familiar to urologists. A patient was evaluated for obesity, cushingoid features, hyperlipidemia, glucose intolerance, coronary artery disease, a left adrenal mass, bilateral testicular masses and cardiac myxomas. Pathological evaluation revealed the testicular tumors to be of Sertoli cell origin, the adrenal mass to be an adrenocortical adenoma and intracardiac lesions consistent with myxomas. The features of Carney's complex are discussed.
