Abstract | OBJECTIVE: METHODS: RESULTS: Twenty-seven patients were included. Twenty-one (78%) patients presented with plasma cortisol ≥280 nmol/L (range 280-570 nmol/L), and six (22%) <280 nmol/L (range 13-260 nmol/L). Five of these six patients underwent cosyntropin stimulation that revealed severe adrenal insufficiency in two patients ( cortisol peak 150 nmol/L and 210 nmol/L) and mild adrenal insufficiency in three patients ( cortisol peak 350-388 nmol/L). CONCLUSION:
