The medical treatment of adrenal disease.
The medical treatment of disorders of the adrenal gland, i.e. Addison's disease, Cushing's syndrome, primary aldosteronism, congenital adrenal hyperplasia and phaeochromocytoma, is described. Although these conditions are rare and may present with subtle symptoms and signs, most are life-threatening hence correct diagnosis and treatment are essential.
