Inflammation-based score in pediatric adrenocortical carcinoma. [PDF]
Abstract Inflammation-based scores have been demonstrated to be independent prognostic factors in predicting outcomes in adult adrenocortical carcinoma (ACC). We aimed to investigate the prognostic role of these scores in pediatric adrenocortical carcinoma (pACC) patients.

Factors associated with survival in pediatric adrenocortical carcinoma: An analysis of the National Cancer Data Base (NCDB) [PDF]
Adrenocortical carcinoma (ACC) is a rare tumor in children with important distinctions from the adult disease. We reviewed the National Cancer Data Base (NCDB) to determine factors associated with long-term survival.The NCDB was queried for patients less than 18 years of age who were diagnosed with ACC between 1998 and 2011.

Pediatric Mixed Functioning Adrenocortical Carcinoma: A Case Report and Review of Literature [PDF]
Adrenocortical carcinoma (ACC) is a very rare disease in the pediatric age group. The clinic-biological profile, histopathological criteria of diagnosis, and staging of this disease in this age group are different from those of adult ACC.

International Delphi-based consensus: therapeutic approaches for pediatric adrenocortical carcinoma
Abstract Adrenocortical carcinoma (ACC) in children is a rare and aggressive malignancy. Despite representing a small fraction of pediatric adrenal tumors, ACC poses distinct challenges due to its heterogeneous biological behavior, frequent hormone secretion, and the limited availability of standardized, pediatric-specific treatment ...

Adrenocortical carcinoma: Report of two cases
Adrenocortical carcinoma (ACC) is a rare neoplasm with a slight predilection for female patients. We report two cases of ACC. The first case was of a 7-year-old girl who presented with clitoromegaly.

Functional and behavioral outcomes in pediatric adrenal carcinoma under mitotane therapy: a caregiver-reported pilot study [PDF]
Objective: Mitotane is the standard therapy for advanced pediatric adrenocortical carcinoma (pACC). With improving survival, treatment-related long-term side effects and their impact on everyday functioning are becoming increasingly relevant.

Network analysis reveals potential markers for pediatric adrenocortical carcinoma. [PDF]
Pediatric adrenocortical carcinoma (ACC) is a rare malignancy with a poor outcome. Molecular mechanisms of pediatric ACC oncogenesis and advancement are not well understood. Accurate and timely diagnosis of the disease requires identification of new markers for pediatric ACC.
