title: A case of primary hyperparathyroidism, primary hyperaldosteronism and Cushing's disease.
abstract: The rare association of parathyroid adenoma with primary hyperaldosteronism, occurring in each of 2 patients, was recently reported from this unit. The present communication records the subsequent development, in one of these patients, of Cushing's syndrome with an anterior pituitary adenoma. Screening for other endocrine abnormalities was negative. A literature search failed to produce any other cases of the association of these three conditions in one patient.
