Our data, as well as the retrospective review of CD series associated with USP8-mutated alleles, show heterogeneous findings among the series. Several drawbacks included the lack of a systematic protocol to evaluate these patients before surgery and follow-up. Further prospective studies using a systematic protocol will provide more consistent information about the influence of the corticotropinomas with USP8-mutated alleles on the phenotype, responses to treatment and outcome of patients with CD.
