Utilization of bilateral percutaneous microwave ablation of the adrenal glands in ectopic Cushing's syndrome.

Ectopic Cushing's syndrome (CS) is rare and difficult to cure when the source is elusive. Medical management is complex and often times contraindicated in the medically complex patient. We present a complicated case of ectopic CS where bilateral percutaneous microwave ablation (MWA) of the adrenal glands successfully cured hypercortisolism when surgery and medical therapies were contraindicated.
