Résumé

RÉSUMÉ
L’exposition chronique aux glucocorticoïdes endogène entraine plusieurs complications. Elle est associée à une morbi mortalité cinq fois plus élevée comparée à la population générale en raison des complications cardiovasculaires qui lui sont associées. L’augmentation de l’incidence (12,9 % par personne-année) de la maladie thrombo embolique veineuse chez les patients souffrant de la maladie ou syndrome de cushing a été rapportée par plusieurs auteurs, due à l’exposition chronique aux glucocorticoïdes qui altèrent l’hémostase.

ABSTRACT
Chronic exposure to endogenous glucocorticoids leads to several complications. It is associated with five times higher morbidity and mortality compared to the general population due to the cardiovascular complications associated with it. The increased incidence (12.9% per person-year) of venous thromboembolism in patients suffering from Cushing's disease or syndrome has been reported by several authors, due to chronic exposure to glucocorticoids which impair hemostasis.
