Introduction
Adrenal
§ Medulla à Epinephrine & norepinephrine.
§ Cortex à Glucocorticosteroids, mineralocorticoids, and androgenic
steroids.
Ø Glucocorticoids and mineralocorticoids à essential for
maintaining metabolic homeostasis.
§ Deficiency à life-threatening.
§ Excess à severe & permanent consequence.
à It is critically important to recognize disordered adrenal function.

Adrenal gland physiology
§ Adrenal cortex
§ Outer: Glomerolusa à mineralocorticoid
§ Middle: Fasciculata à cortisol
§ Inner: Reticularis à sex steroid
§ Fasciculata à principle component of H-P-A axis
§ Glucocorticoid secretion is regulated by ACTH
§ ê Cortisol à activate the axis àéACTH
§ é Cortisol à downregulate the axis of H-P-A
§ Glomerolusa à Aldosteron (independent controlled through RA-system)
§ ê BP & ê i.v volume à é renin à activate RA-system

§ Primary:
§ Autoimmune adrenalitis (Addison’s disease), TB
§ CAH: enzyme defect à cortisol deficiency à éprecursor hormones
à loss of – feedback à éACTH

12
Clinical presentation
§ Signs and symptoms related to etiology of Central
A.I
§ Midline facial defect à structural defect of pituitary
§ Poor growth and progression of puberty à multiple
pituitary hormones deficiency
13
Evaluation and management
§ Lab study:
§ Screening:
o Basal cortisol at 8 am (N>12 μg/dL)
§ Primary A.I:
o éACTH, êCortisol, hyponatremia, hyperkalemia
o éPRA, êAldosterone, hyponatremia or shock à
mineralocorticoid deficiency
§ If the test equivocal or no clinical crisis à stimulation
test
o ACTH test for primary A.I or CRH test for 2nd-ry A.I
14
Evaluation and management
§ Others test:
§ Adrenoleukodystrophy à very long chain fatty acid
§ Addison’s disease à adrenal antibodies
§ Other syndrome à genetic testing
§ PPD à TB
§ HIV testing à AIDS
§ Pituitary imaging, pituitary deficiency (GH, TSH,
gonadotropin) à 2nd-ry A.I
15
Treatment and prognosis
§ Appropriate replacement of cortisol and
aldosterone
§ To resemble endogenous cortisol production rate (6-8
mg/m2/day)
o Hydrocortisone p.o 10-15 mg/m2/day or its equivalent
o Hydrocortisone i.m or i.v 100 mg/m2 and then 100 mg/m2/
day divided every 6 hours (in critical illness)
§ Fludrocortisone 0.1-0.2 mg/24 hours
16
Potency of Various Therapeutic Steroids (Set Relative to the Potency of Cortisol)
17
Cushing’s syndrome
18
Etiology and pathogenesis
§ Cushing’s disease
§ Glucocorticoid excess caused by oversecretion ACTH
from pituitary corticotrope adenoma
§ Cushing’s syndrome
§ Glucocorticoid excess of nonpituitary cause including
ectopic ACTH production, adrenal disease, and
exogenous glucocorticoid use
19
Clinical presentation
§ Weight gain, growth failure, fatigue, hypertension,
glucose intolerance, and delayed puberty
§ Osteopenia, acne, plethora, hirsutism, ‘buffalo
hump’, strie
§ Hyperandrogenism and virilization can indicate
adrenal carcinoma

Evaluation and management
§ Loss of diurnal rhythm of cortisol secretion
§ A 24 hours urine collection and measurement of free cortisol
(N <40-50 μg )
§ Salivary cortisol at 11 pm (N <4.2 nmol/L)
§ Dexamethasone suppression test
o 1 mg of DXM at 11 pm orally à serum cortisol before 9 am (N <1.8
μg/dL)
o ACTH measurement and high dose DXM suppression test need to
distinguish ACTH-dependent or independent
26
Evaluation and management
§ Inferior petrosal sinuses blood sampling for ACTH test à
Cushing’s disease
§ Pituitary MRI with gadolinium can be used to visualize
small adenomas.
§ Abdominal USG or CT to identify adrenal mass.

§ Late onset
§ PCOS in women
§ Less common: associated with hypertension (11-β-hydroxylase deficiency (CYP11
gene)

Prader scale
I: clitoromegaly without labial fusion.
II: clitoromegaly and posterior labial fusion.
III: greater degree of clitoromegaly, single perineal urogenital orifice, and
almost complete labial fusion.

and complete labial fusion.
V: penile clitoris, urethral meatus at tip of phallus, and scrotum-like labia
(appear like males without palpable gonads).

testosterone
§ ACTH stimulation test
§ Genetic analysis of CYP21 or CYP11
