Surgical treatment of spinal extradural arteriovenous fistula with parenchymal drainage: report on 5 cases.

abstract：OBJECTIVE AND IMPORTANCE:Adrenocorticotropin (ACTH)-secreting pituitary adenomas causing Cushing's disease are often difficult to identify because of their variable locations and their small size. This report presents histological evidence of an ectopic ACTH-secreting adenoma located entirely within the cavernous sinus...
