Abstract
At the background of the complex clinical, hormonal and instrumental examination of 96 patients with diagnosis of Itsenko-Cushing’s disease the detailed analysis of MR tomographic picture and study of the clinical status in dependence on structural changes of the pituitary were carried out. MRI-examination revealed different pituitary pathology in 91,7% of patients with Cushing’s disease: in 7,3%o of cases the polymorphous adenohypophysis structure was detected, in 6,2% of cases the picture of empty sella turcica was disclosed, in 78%> of patients there was found pituitary adenoma, including microadenoma in 58,3%> of cases and macroadenoma- in 19,8%> of patients. The analysis did not show any correlation between sizes and corticotropinoma features discovered by MRI-examination and its hormonal activity.
