Abstract The aforementioned comments of the effects of adrenal cortical tumors have been necessarily limited by the extensiveness of the subject. However, we have mentioned briefly the relation of the adrenal cortex to electrolyte and carbohydrate metabolism and to the various changes in secondary sex characteristics which are seen in patients with ...

Adrenal Myelolipoma Simulating Virilizing Adrenal Tumor
Urologia Internationalis, 1989We describe a case of adrenal myelolipoma that simulated clinically and biochemically a virilizing adrenal tumor. The tumor was removed surgically. The preoperative diagnosis of adrenal myelolipoma can be made by the characteristic appearance on ultrasonography, computerized tomography and in equivocal cases by guided needle biopsy.

Adrenal tumors, apart from neuroblastoma, are relatively rare in infancy and childhood. Most adrenal lesions are benign, and both benign and malignant tumors may be hormonally active thus, making accurate preoperative diagnosis difficult. The two main malignant tumors are adrenocortical carcinoma and pheochromocytoma.

Rare Adrenal Tumors and Adrenal Metastasis
Urologic Clinics of North AmericaThis article covers rare adrenal tumors including functional adenomas, myelolipomas, ganglioneuromas and neuroblastomas, and metastasis to the adrenal gland. It explores their clinical presentation and behavior, hormonal activity, imaging features, other diagnostic considerations, and approaches to management.

Adrenal tumors can be primary or secondary entities. Primary tumors are able to secrete hormones which may cause significant effects clinically. Typical tumor-related adrenal diseases are Conn's syndrome (hyperaldosteronism), Cushing's syndrome (hypercortisolism), and pheochromocytoma (catacholamine excess). Primary adrenal tumors are rarely malignant,

Asymmetric Adrenals: Sexual Dimorphism of Adrenal Tumors
The Journal of Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism, 2023Abstract Context Sexual dimorphism has direct consequences on the incidence and survival of cancer. Early and accurate diagnosis is crucial to improve prognosis. Objective This work aimed to characterized the influence of sex and ...

Androgen-secreting adrenal tumors
Surgery, 2003Adrenal tumors that secrete androgens exclusively are extraordinarily rare. The aim of this study was to characterize patients with pure androgen-secreting adrenal tumors.A retrospective chart review from January 1946 through November 2002 identified 11 female patients with pure androgen-secreting adrenal tumors.The mean age was 23.4 years (range, 1-52)

Although adrenal tumors detected during pregnancy are extraordinarily rare, the pathophysiologic repercussions of untreated adrenal neoplasms are enormous to both mother and fetus. From our computer-based registry of pregnant patients from 1975 through 1996 (n = 30,246), four cases of adrenal neoplasms associated with pregnancy were identified (0.013%),
