Abstract
- We describe a case of a patient that presented to our center with Cushing syndrome and was found to have an extensive metastatic adrenal carcinoma. He underwent debulking of the abdominal disease followed by eight courses of VP-16/carboplatinum. The patient had a remarkable response and is currently alive and in complete remission.
