An ectopic adrenocortical oncocytic adenoma in the liver highly mimicking hepatocellular carcinoma: case report and literature review

Diagnostic Pathology, 2021
Background Ectopic adrenocortical tissue is a lesion usually found incidentally during autopsy or inguinal surgery. Here, we demonstrate an extremely unusual case of intrahepatic adrenocortical adenoma which highly mimicks hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC ...

Cytomegalovirus and BK-Virus co-infection of a clinically non-functioning adrenal adenoma: innocent bystanders or new pathogenetic agents?

European Journal of Histochemistry, 2009
We report a case of a 64-year-old woman who underwent left adrenalectomy with removal of a 8,5 cm clinically non-functioning adrenocortical adenoma and a 4-cm myelolipoma. Molecular testing for viral infection demonstrated the presence of cytomegalovirus

Genetic Causes of Functional Adrenocortical Adenomas [PDF]

Endocrine Reviews, 2017
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 ...
