Varicella causing remission of Cushings disease

An 18-year-old male with Cushing's disease presented with generalised skin eruptions and backache. He was diagnosed with varicella infection. During the course of the illness, he developed persistent vomiting. Hormonal evaluation suggested adrenal insufficiency. MRI of brain showed features of pituitary apoplexy. Initially, he required hydrocortisone replacement. Later on his hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal axis recovered and he is currently asymptomatic without any treatment.
