Case Report: Thymic neuroendocrine tumor with metastasis to the breast causing ectopic Cushing’s syndrome
Ectopic adrenocorticotropic hormone secretion (EAS) is responsible for approximately 10%–18% of Cushing’s syndrome cases. Thymic neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) comprise 5%–16% of EAS; therefore, they are very rare and the data about this particular tumors is scarce. We present a case of a 34-year-old...
