Imaging findings of primary adrenal tumors in pediatric patients
Apart from neuroblastomas, adrenal tumors are rarely seen in children. The most common adrenal tumors are adrenocortical carcinoma and pheochromocytoma.

Adrenal Tumors in Young Adults: Case Reports and Literature Review
The current high detection rate of adrenal tumors (4–10% of general population) is attributable to a widespread use of variety of imaging studies, especially a computed tomography.

KIAA0101 is overexpressed, and promotes growth and invasion in adrenal cancer. [PDF]
BACKGROUND:KIAA0101 is a proliferating cell nuclear antigen-associated factor that is overexpressed in some human malignancies. Adrenocortical neoplasm is one of the most common human neoplasms for which the molecular causes are poorly understood ...

Role of ACTH receptor in adrenocortical tumor formation
Adrenocorticotrophin (ACTH) is the major regulatory hormone of steroid synthesis and secretion by adrenocortical cells. The actions of ACTH are mediated by its specific membrane receptor (ACTH-R).

Gene Expression and Regulation in Adrenocortical Tumorigenesis
Adrenocortical tumors are frequently found in the general population, and may be benign adrenocortical adenomas or malignant adrenocortical carcinomas. Unfortunately the clinical, biochemical and histopathological distinction between benign and malignant

Neuroendocrine differentiation of adrenocortical tumors [PDF]
The syndrome of multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1 frequently involves the adrenal cortex. The relationship between the diffuse neuroendocrine system and the adrenal cortex is not clear however, particularly as the adrenal cortex is not considered to be an intrinsic part of the diffuse neuroendocrine system.The possible relationship between the ...

The challenge to differentiate between sarcoma or adrenal carcinoma—an observational study
Background Adrenal sarcomas are rare malignant tumors with structural and clinical similarities to sarcomatoid adrenocortical carcinoma. Preoperative diagnosis of tumors of the adrenal gland can be challenging and often misleading thus detaining patients

Prenatal presentation of an adrenocortical tumor
AbstractBackgroundPrenatally identified suprarenal masses are most often found to be adrenal hemorrhage. The most common tumor in this situation is neuroblastoma.Case PresentationWe report the case of a rare adrenocortical tumor found prenatally on ultrasound.

Mouse models of adrenocortical tumors [PDF]
The molecular basis of the organogenesis, homeostasis, and tumorigenesis of the adrenal cortex has been the subject of intense study for many decades. Specifically, characterization of tumor predisposition syndromes with adrenocortical manifestations and molecular profiling of sporadic adrenocortical tumors have led to the discovery of key molecular ...
