Cushing's disease due to a pituitary adenoma as a component of collision tumor: A case report and review of the literature.

To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of Cushing's disease due to a pituitary corticotroph adenoma adjacent to a meningioma. Even if a high-dose dexamethasone suppression test fails to suppress basal cortisol level, the importance of considering a suprasellar/sellar meningioma a possible component of a collision tumor presenting as adrenocorticotrophic hormone-dependent Cushing's syndrome is highlighted here.
