摘要：
Background A 24-year-old woman presented with a 12.5 kg weight gain over 6 months (mostly abdominal), hirsutism, acne, ankle edema, polydipsia, nocturia, back pain, pigmentation, poor libido and lightened menses to our hospital in May 1986. She had been treated for the previous 2 years with furosemide and spironolactone for peripheral edema, and had stopped the combined oral contraceptive 2 months previously. She did not take tobacco, recreational drugs or alcohol. Upon physical examination she was grossly Cushingoid with florid clinical manifestations.
