Background: Inferior petrosal sinus sampling (IPSS) is indicated in the diagnosis of adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH)-dependent Cushing's syndrome (CS), especially when the results of the initial diagnostic tests are discordant.
Objective: To describe the patients who underwent this invasive functional test in a tertiary hospital.
Methods: This was an observational study of a retrospective cohort of patients with ACTH-dependent CS and IPSS between 2004 and 2019.
