[The importance of immunogenetic studies in Itsenko-Cushing disease combined with other endocrine diseases].
Ninety-seven patients suffering from Itsenko [correction of Icenko]-Cushing disease were examined. Analysis was made first of all of the clinical and laboratory signs pointing to the presence of other endocrine diseases to distinguish two groups of patients. The first group included subjects who did not manifest any concomitant diseases. The number of men and women was the same. The second group was made up of patients with associated Itsenko [correction of Icenko]-Cushing disease and other endocrine diseases. In this particular group, women were predominant. The first group patients demonstrated the predominance of the DR7 incidence, the second group that of the DR5. The method of estimating HLA associations identified is proposed. It allows distinguishing specific and nonspecific associations. In Itsenko [correction of Icenko]-Cushing disease, DR7 association is specific, whereas B8 and DR5 associations are unspecific. A specific polyendocrine autoimmune syndrome associated with Itsenko [correction of Icenko]-Cushing disease was revealed. A concept of the pathogenesis of Itsenko [correction of Icenko]-Cushing disease is advanced.
