Large adrenocortical adenoma with malignant features on imaging: A case report
Large adrenocortical adenomas have rarely been reported. We describe a case of a 26-year-old man who underwent an adrenalectomy for a large adrenocortical adenoma (8.6 × 7.7 cm).

Nonhypnotic low-dose etomidate for rapid correction of hypercortisolaemia in cushing's syndrome [PDF]
We determined the adrenostatic potential of low-dose nonhypnotic etomidate in six patients with Cushing's syndrome (ectopic Cushing's syndrome,n=2; Cushing's disease,n=3; bilateral adrenal adenoma,n=1). Etomidate was given as a continuous infusion for 32

Gel chromatographic characterization of immunoreactive adrenocorticotropin in patients with ACTH hypersecretion [PDF]
We investigated the molecular size of circulating immunoreactive ACTH by gel chromatography in patients with ACTH hypersecretion due to various disorders of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis.
