Cross-species summary:
Hyperadrenocorticism (or Cushing syndrome) refers to genetic and iatrogenic hypersecretion of adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) (e.g. caused by tumours of either the pituitary or adrenal glands; or long-term administration of exogenous glucocorticoids). Entries for Cushing disease (pituitary-dependent hyperadrenocorticism) are included here and for some species also under the OMIA phene Cushing disease (OMIA000247)
