Cushing's Hub
A resource for healthcare professionals caring for patients with Cushing’s syndrome
Calling all endocrinologists: the 2025 Cushing’s Hub Competition starts now!
The Editorial Board is delighted to announce the 2025 Cushing’s Hub Competition, in which endocrinologists worldwide are invited to submit a clinical case scenario for inclusion in the Cushing’s Hub Interactive Case Studies series.
If you have first-hand experience of a clinical case scenario that may be of interest to the global medical community, the Cushing’s Hub team would love to hear from you!

Congratulations to the Winner of the 2025 Cushing’s Hub Competition
The Editorial Board is again delighted to congratulate Dr Stefano Testa of the Department of Medical Biotechnology and Translational Medicine, University of Milan, Italy, winner of the 2025 Cushing’s Hub Competition, whose outstanding Interactive Clinical Case is now available to view online.
Dr Testa’s case emphasises the importance of considering extra‑adrenal sources of cortisol excess in unexplained ACTH‑independent disease and highlights the crucial role of histopathology and immunohistochemistry in determining tumour origin and malignancy status. The case study also illustrates the need for a structured multidisciplinary approach in managing complex endocrine oncology cases.

Latest from across Cushing's Hub
This case study – the Cushing’s Hub Clinical Case Competition 2025 winner – presents the diagnostic approach and management of ACTH‑independent CS, with a particular focus on identifying extra‑adrenal sources of cortisol within the complex landscape of endocrine oncology.
Neoplastic hypercortisolism – whether pituitary, adrenal, or ectopic – remains one of the most challenging arenas in endocrine oncology. The Editorial Board takes the opportunity to highlight key publications in medical therapy from 2025.
Regardless of treatment modality, effective control of hypercortisolism in patients with bilateral adrenal tumors is key to achieving favorable cardiovascular outcomes, suggests a data analysis of the ENSAT trial.
