The steroids secreted by the adrenal cortex are principally glucocorticoid (cortisol), mineralocorticoid (aldosterone) and sex steroids (dehydroepian- drosterone, androstenedione, oestradiol and testosterone) (Fig. 2.1). The adrenal cortex is divided into three zones, with glucocorticoids and sex steroids being secreted by the zona reticularis and zona

Endocrinology and Metabolism Clinics of North America, 2000
Because widespread use of imaging techniques has led to the frequent detection of incidentalomas, radiologists, endocrinologists, and endocrine surgeons must be knowledgeable about the appropriate evaluation of patients, and the selection of the appropriate surgical approach, including conventional open and laparoscopic adrenalectomy.

The adrenal glands consist of an outer cortex and inner medulla. Each gland weighs in the region of 3–6 g of which the medulla constitutes 10%. Average size is 3–5 cm long, 2–3 cm wide by 0.5 cm thick.

JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1989
This brand new textbook attempts to cover the entire field of adrenal gland diseases, including basic steroid biochemistry and physiology, in about 500 pages. In the book's introduction, the author, C. R. Kannan, explains that his main goal is to review vast amounts of adrenal literature and summarize all the material he thinks will be relevant to the

Myelolipoma of the Adrenal Gland
Scottish Medical Journal, 1971Myelolipomas are uncommon lesions of the adrenal gland. Four cases are presented which were found at post-mortem examination and in biopsies received during the last 12 years in the Pathology Departments of the Western General Hospital and of the University of Edinburgh. The pathogenesis of the lesion, which so far has remained an enigma, is discussed
