[Role of autonomic nervous system in pathogenesis and clinical manifestation of arterial hypertension in Icenko-Cushing disease].
OBJECTIVE
To study the role of autonomic nervous system (ANS) in pathogenesis and clinical symptoms of arterial hypertension (AH) in Icenko-Cushing disease (ICD).


METHODS
Clinical and paraclinical parameters (vegetative reflexes, special tables, 10 words memory and Spilberg's tests, ECG, electroencephalography, computed tomography, MR-tomography, hormonal status) were studied in 48 ICD patients before and after treatment (adenomectomy, irradiation of the hypophysis, adrenalectomy, parlodel, chlotidin chemotherapy).


RESULTS
94.5% of patients with active ICD had blood hypertension and vegetovascular asthenia. There was a trend to cerebrovascular impairment. In spite of biochemical and clinical ICD remission lipothemia persisted in many patients.


CONCLUSIONS
Pathogenesis of blood hypertension in ICD is related to hypersecretion of ACTH and corticosteroids but further progress of the disease depends on phenotypic features of autonomic nervous system and developing defects of CNS.
