Adenomas were identified, removed, and verified pathologically in 28 patients (78\%); in all cases, hypercortisolism was corrected. Overall, 31 of the 36 patients (8 6 \%) were cured initially (biochemically and clinically). No operative mortality or permanent neurological sequelae were sustained. Follow-up ranged from four to 120 months. There have been three recurrences after an initial apparent cure.}, issn = {0891-1150}, URL = {https://www.ccjm.org/content/55/4/357}, eprint = {https://www.ccjm.org/content/55/4/357.full.pdf}, journal = {Cleveland Clinic Journal of Medicine} }
