Progress in the diagnosis and treatment of endocrine diseases has turned pregnancy into a possibility for women with such medical disorders, including Cushing's syndrome (CS). Nevertheless, despite its rarity, pregnancy in patients with CS can be troublesome because of the risk of maternal-fetal complications. Therefore, hypercortisolism, if present, should be surgically or medically controlled in most cases. Moreover, changes in the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis during normal pregnancy may mislead the diagnosis of CS during this period, because many laboratory assessments suggestive of CS may be present in normal pregnancy, with clinical features mimicking those seen in patients with CS. The aim of the present review is to update the diagnostic approach to this medical condition, mainly for pregnant women without previous diagnosis of CS, and to describe the therapeutic strategies for CS during pregnancy in order to minimize complications for both mother and fetus.
