Abstract | Primary macronodular adrenal hyperplasia (PMAH) is considered a rare cause of adrenal Cushing syndrome, is pituitary ACTH-independent, generally results from bilateral adrenal macronodules (>1 cm), and is often associated with variable cortisol secretion, resulting in a heterogeneous clinical presentation. Recent advances in the molecular pathogenesis of PMAH have offered new insights into the comprehension of this heterogeneous and complex adrenal disorder. Different molecular mechanisms involving the actors of the cAMP/protein kinase A pathway have been implicated in the development of PMAH, including germline and/or somatic molecular defects such as hyperexpression of the G-protein aberrant receptors and pathogenic variants of |
