This symposium will compile four exciting presentations on adrenal Cushing syndrome:

1. Challenges in the diagnosis and therapy of unusual forms for hypercortisolism (bilateral adrenal tumors and cyclical Cushing syndrome);

2. Progress in ACTH-independent Cushing syndrome: genetics, imaging, and surgical outcomes.

3. Clinical implications of mild autonomous cortisol secretion?
