Cushing's disease is a severe endocrine disorder caused by excess secretion of adrenocorticotropic hormone from pituitary. Due to its subtle early clinical manifestations , the diagnosis of Cushing's disease is often delayed, and differentiating it from ectopic adrenocorticotropic hormone syndrome is a challenge. Combined functional tests can improve the diagnostic accuracy of Cushing's disease. The primary treatment for Cushing's disease is surgical removal of pituitary adenoma. However, about 1/3 of patients do not respond or experience recurrence after surgery, necessitating second-line treatments including medication. The development of novel drugs has enhanced the role of pharmacotherapy in the management of Cushing's disease. The review discusses the classic and emerging diagnostic methods and treatment strategies of Cushing's disease to deepen clinicians' understanding of its current treatment status and prospects.
