Hyperadrenocorticism in a dog due to ectopic secretion of adrenocorticotropic hormone
Spontaneous hyperadrenocorticism in dogs is known to be the result of excessive secretion of adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) by the pituitary gland or excessive autonomous glucocorticoid secretion by an adrenocortical tumor. Here, we report on an 8-year-old German shepherd dog in which ACTH-depen...

description | Spontaneous hyperadrenocorticism in dogs is known to be the result of excessive secretion of adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) by the pituitary gland or excessive autonomous glucocorticoid secretion by an adrenocortical tumor. Here, we report on an 8-year-old German shepherd dog in which ACTH-dependent hyperadrenocorticism was a result of ectopic ACTH secretion and could be related to an abdominal neuroendocrine tumor. Hyperadrenocorticism was diagnosed on the basis of the history, clinical signs, and elevated urinary corticoid/creatinine ratios (UCCRs; 236 and 350

Stimulation of the pituitary with corticotropin-releasing hormone did not affect plasma ACTH and cortisol concentrations. Treatment with trilostane was started and restored normocorticism. CT of the pituitary fossa, 10 months after hypophysectomy, revealed an empty sella. Hence, it was presumed that there was ectopic secretion of ACTH. CT of the abdomen revealed a mass in the region of the pancreas and a few nodules in the liver. Partial pancreatectomy with adjacent lymph node extirpation was performed and the liver nodules were biopsied. Histological examination revealed a metastasized neuroendocrine tumor. Abdominal surgery was not curative and medical treatment with trilostane was continued. At 18 months after the abdominal surgery, the dog is still in good condition.
