Aims: Cushing's syndrome (CS) is associated with increased cardiovascular morbidity and mortality, both of which may persist after long-term remission. Our aim was to evaluate the prevalence of type 2 diabetes mellitus, fat distribution and other metabolic characteristics in patients with prior CS compared with matched population-based controls to assess metabolic risk factors. Methods: Comorbidities were retrospectively analyzed in a cohort of 99 patients with CS from a single tertiary care center. Patients were longitudinally evaluated at baseline during active disease and at 7 years after biochemical remission. Data were compared to a control group matched for age and sex (n = 396) from the KORA study in a 1:4 fashion. Results: Despite long-term improvements, patients with CS in sustained remission still exhibit adverse metabolic outcomes 7 years after remission, including higher relative fat mass (39% vs. 35%, p = 0.0013), a higher waist-to-hip ratio (0.89 vs. 0.82, p < 0.0001), elevated HbA1c (5.5% vs. 5.4%, p = 0.0087), and increased diabetes prevalence (19% vs. 4%, p < 0.0001) compared with controls. These persistent metabolic alterations were strongly associated with inflammatory markers, suggesting inflammation as a potential contributor to the sustained diabetes risk. Conclusion: Patients with prior CS remain burdened by adverse metabolic profiles that may contribute to their increased long-term cardiovascular risk.
