[Psychiatric symptoms in Cushing syndrome: a clinical case].

Abstract

A patient with Cushing's syndrome presented psyquiatric manifestations that were diagnosed and treated before diagnosis of Cushing's syndrome. These manifestations were unspecific, unstable and they responded to etiologic treatment but they didn't to syntomatic treatment. This case demonstrates the importance to make a through search for organic factors when there are changes in physical appearance and psyquiatric features are changing through the evolution.
