A 34-year man was admitted to the hospital with symptoms of hypoglycemia. The endocrine investigations indicated adrenocortical insufficiency secondary to isolated ACTH deficiency: low ACTH and cortisol plasma levels, significant increase of cortisol following prolonged stimulation with depot tetracosactrin, normal secretory reserve of other anterior pituitary hormones. The absence of ACTH-response after corticotropin releasing hormone and insulin tolerance tests suggested a primary impairment of corticotropin cells.
