Virilizing Adrenocortical Tumors in Childhood
Pediatrics, 1986To the Editor.— It was of considerable interest to read about the experience of virilizing adrenal tumors at the Childrens Memorial Hospital, Chicago,1 and the literature review is of particular value. In 1984, we published results from our study during 12 years of 12 infants with virilizing adrenal tumors without cortisol excess.

Aberrations of centrosomes in adrenocortical tumors
International Journal of Oncology, 2002The frequent and generalized chromosomal imbalances that are characteristic of adrenocortical carcinomas suggest that incomplete chromosome segregation often takes place in these tumors. As a step towards elucidating the mechanism behind the multiple numerical chromosomal aberrations, we have evaluated a series of 14 such tumors for centrosome ...

P53 and Ki67 in Adrenocortical Tumors
Endocrine Research, 2000The p53 tumor-supressor gene has been reported as the most frequent genetic abnormality seen in human malignancies. Here we studied immunohistochemically the expression of p53 in a large series of adrenocortical tumors. The proliferative activity was assessed by the expression of Ki67.

Growth in children with adrenocortical tumors
Klinische Pädiatrie, 1991Longitudinal growth was assessed in 10 children aged 0.8 to 11.8 years with adrenocortical tumors. All children had signs of androgen excess. In addition, 5 children had glucocorticoid excess, 1 child had estrogen excess. Multiple height recordings, expressed as height standard deviation score for chronological age, were available in 7 children.

Dexamethasone-Suppressible Adrenocortical Tumor
New England Journal of Medicine, 1968ONE of the most widely employed tests in clinical endocrinology is the dexamethasone suppression test. The applications of this test fall into two broad classes.

Virilizing adrenocortical tumor superimposed on congenital adrenocortical hyperplasia
The American Journal of Medicine, 1992A 51-year-old woman with a virilizing adenoma and underlying undetected and untreated congenital adrenocortical hyperplasia is described. The 10 instances of the combination of these two pathologic lesions are reviewed with particular attention to the steroid abnormalities encountered.

We studied three cases of adrenocortical neoplasms that were detected incidentally after radiological examination of the abdomen. These cases did not demonstrate any clinical evidence of adrenocortical abnormalities, such as virilization. Macroscopically, the tumors were light to dark tan on cut surface.

Hormonally active tumors of the adrenal cortex are either benign adenomas or adenocarcinomas. They may be located within the adrenal gland or as adrenal rests along the Wolffian tract. Hyperplastic cortical tissue without actual neoplastic formation is also capable of elaborating excessive cortical secretions.AT THE PRESENT STATE OF KNOWLEDGE, ANY ONE ...

Pathogenesis of Adrenocortical Tumors
2010Adrenocortical carcinomas are rare malignant tumors. However, the high incidence of the adrenocortical tumors in pediatric and adult patients from the Southern region of Brazil is particularly remarkable, since it has been estimated to be approximately ten times greater than the worldwide incidence. Adrenocortical tumors occur as a component of several
