Rare Association Between Neurofibromatosis Type 1 and Adrenocortical Carcinoma

open access: yesClinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 3, March 2026.
Axial slice CT abdomen pelvis with portal venous contrast, revealing a well circumscribed 22 × 20 × 22 mm left adrenocortical adenocarcinoma (ACC) in a patient with neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1). ABSTRACT Although rare, adrenocortical carcinoma (ACC) should be considered in individuals with neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) presenting with adrenal ...

Adrenal incidentalomas

open access: yesBratislava Medical Journal, 2001
The extensive use and progress in the improvement of imaging techniques brings about the growing incidence of incidentalomas, i.e. adrenal lesions accidentally revealed during the imaging of the abdominal cavity which was originally focused on the visualisation of organs other than adrenal glands.

A Hidden Culprit: Aldosteronoma as a Rare Cause of Refractory Hypertension in Autosomal‐Dominant Polycystic Kidney Disease

open access: yesClinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Hypertension is common in autosomal‐dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) but may occasionally reflect a secondary etiology. We report a 71‐year‐old man with ADPKD and end‐stage renal disease who developed persistent, refractory hypertension following renal transplantation despite multidrug therapy and bilateral native nephrectomy ...

Benign Adrenal Adenomas Are Associated With Reduced Prevalence of Hospitalised Patients With COVID‐19

open access: yesClinical Endocrinology, Volume 104, Issue 3, Page 207-214, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Introduction Adrenal incidentalomas (AI) are commonly found on imaging done for indications other than to assess the adrenal glands. Prevalence increases with age and is around 10% in people over 80 years. The majority of AIs are benign adenomas, with 20%−50% exhibiting mild autonomous cortisol secretion (MACS).

open access: yesHuman Pathology: Case Reports, 2019
Adrenal tumors that are found incidentally during radiological and/or histological examinations performed for unrelated symptoms are called incidentalomas.

Efficacy and Tolerability of Metyrapone in Mild Autonomous Cortisol Secretion: Real‐World Findings From Clinical Practice

open access: yesClinical Endocrinology, Volume 104, Issue 3, Page 215-221, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Objective Mild autonomous cortisol secretion (MACS) is associated with increased cardiometabolic risk factors including hypertension, type 2 diabetes and dyslipidaemia. By using evening doses of metyrapone, a short‐acting 11‐β hydroxylase inhibitor, it has been shown that it is possible to reset the abnormal circadian cortisol rhythm in MACS ...

A retrospective study on the association between urine metanephrines and cardiometabolic risk in patients with nonfunctioning adrenal incidentaloma

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
Several studies argued that cardiovascular evaluation of patients with nonfunctioning adrenal incidentaloma is of particular importance. Therefore, we aimed to evaluate the possibility of stratifying the cardiometabolic risk using metanephrine levels in ...

Mass Spectrometric Measurements of 11‐Deoxycortisol, Androstenedione and Dehydroepiandrosterone Are Superior to Cortisol to Assess Selectivity of Non‐Stimulated Adrenal Vein Sampling

open access: yesClinical Endocrinology, Volume 104, Issue 1, Page 10-18, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Objective Successful adrenal venous sampling (AVS) is traditionally assessed using the ratio of cortisol in adrenal to peripheral venous plasma to calculate the selectivity index. With mass spectrometry other steroids can be simultaneously measured that may improve numbers of apparent successful sampling procedures.

Adrenal Incidentaloma: Challenges in Diagnosing Adrenal Myelolipoma

open access: yesJournal of Investigative Medicine High Impact Case Reports, 2019
Adrenal myelolipomas (AMLs) are rare benign adrenal tumors, containing adipose and hematopoietic tissue, a result of reticuloendothelial cell metaplasia. Incidence on autopsy has been reported from 0.08% to 0.4%.
