Transformation of a Benign Adrenocortical Adenoma to a Metastatic Adrenocortical Carcinoma Is Rare But It Happens [PDF]
Abstract The transformation of an adrenocortical adenoma (ACA) to an adrenocortical carcinoma (ACC) is extremely rare. Current guidelines suggest against further imaging studies and follow-up in patients with nonfunctional adrenal incidentalomas (NFAIs) with benign imaging characteristics.

Adrenocortical Adenoma with Foci of Myelolipoma in a Patient of Conn’s Syndrome [PDF]
Adrenal myelolipoma is an uncommon benign tumour usually discovered by chance in patients. It is usually inactive hormonally and composed of mature adipose tissue with normal haematopoietic cells.

IntroductionThis study aimed to explore the possible pathogenesis of a rare case of co-existing Cushing’s syndrome (CS) and primary aldosteronism (PA) caused by bilateral adrenocortical adenomas secreting aldosterone and cortisol, respectively.MethodsA ...

A rare presentation of adrenal adenoma in infancy: isolated Cushing`s syndrome
Adrenocortical tumors are rare in children. Most of these tumors present with endocrinological manifestations, majority of which with virilizing features alone or in combination with over production of other adrenal hormones.

Ectopic adrenocortical tissue may be present in many anatomical localizations. Hyperplasia, adenoma or carcinoma can occasionally develop from the ectopic adrenal tissue. Therefore, it should be surgically excised when it is detected.

Genetic Causes of Functional Adrenocortical Adenomas [PDF]
Aldosterone and cortisol, the main mineralocorticoid and glucocorticoid hormones in humans, are produced in the adrenal cortex, which is composed of three concentric zones with specific functional characteristics. Adrenocortical adenomas (ACAs) can lead to the autonomous secretion of aldosterone responsible for primary aldosteronism, the most frequent ...

Minimally Invasive Surgery for Pediatric Adrenal Masses—Report on Four Cases
The dignity of adrenal masses in children varies from benign lesions like adenoma and ganglioneuroma to malignant tumors like adrenocortical carcinoma and neuroblastoma. Any surgical approach, especially minimally invasive surgery (MIS), requires careful
