The clinical and biochemical diagnosis of Cushing’s syndrome (CS) presents a challenge to both clinicians and laboratories. In recent years, there have been several attempts to reach consensus on the management of CS, either by literature review or by drafting consensus guidelines. In 2003, the European Neuroendocrine Association and the Italian Society of Endocrinology reached a consensus on the diagnostic criteria, management and complications of CS at a workshop in Ancona, Italy.1 Three years later, Findling and Raff reviewed the literature from 1996 to 2006 on the important issues in the diagnosis and management of CS
