Abstract:
We report here a case of splenic artery aneurysm with Cushing's syndrome. Pregnancy and the increased secretion of cortisol from an adrenal adenoma in Cushing's syndrome may affect the intimal and medial degeneration. Factors other than glucocorticoids may influence the pathological changes.
