Adrenocortical carcinoma is an uncommon and aggressivemalignancy. Despite a high frequency of metastasis, cutaneousmetastasis of adrenocortical carcinoma is rare with only isolatedcase reports. Its diagnosis can be challenging based solely onhistopathological findings. Yet, the clinical history in combinationwith an immunohistochemical panel consisting of inhibin,vimentin, chromogranin, synapto...

Nonfunctional adrenocortical carcinoma is an extremely rare malignant tumor in children. Unlike the functional tumor which is detected early due to its hormonal presentation, nonfunctional tumor is detected at a later stage. Here we report a case of a 10 year old girl who presented with abdominal mass and symptoms of short duration. No hypertension and cushingoid features were seen. Serum alpha...

adrenocortical carcinomas (acc) is an uncommon disease that accounts for only 0.02% of all cancers. herein, this study evaluates a case of adult acc with extension into the inferior vena cava and cushingoid features. a 67-year-old lady was admitted to the surgery service for surgical resection of adrenal mass which was found on hypertension work-up. on physical examination, she was fat, cushing...

adrenocortical carcinoma (acc) is a rare tumor and usually a fatal disease which can develop at any age in either sex. differential diagnosis between malignant and benign adrenal mass is not easy which leads to significant clinical challenge for optimal treatment. here we report a 22-year-old woman diagnosed with primary hyper aldostronism initially but disease relapsed during six months and ma...

Adrenocortical carcinoma (ACC) is a rare malignancy with poor prognosis, and it can be classified as either a functional or nonfunctional tumor. Affected patients usually present with abdominal pain or with symptoms related to the mass effect or hormonal activity of the tumor. Several cases of spontaneously ruptured nonfunctional adrenocortical carcinoma have been reported, but no case of a spo...

Background:Unilateral tumors or masses of the adrenal gland are common. They are categorized as either functional (hormone-secreting) or silent and as either benign or malignant. Adrenocortical tumors are rare in childhood, with an incidence of 0.3-0.5 cases per one million child-years. Almost half of childhood tumors are adrenocortical carcinomas (ACC). Most ACCs are sporadic, but specialy i...

Adrenocortical carcinoma is a rare neoplasm and it has an invariably lethal prognosis. We report here on the fine needle aspiration cytologic findings of a solitary metastatic pulmonary adrenocortical carcinoma in a 24-year-old woman. The aspirate smears were very cellular and they were composed of a monomorphic population of large polyhedral cells with abundant granular or vacuolated cytoplasm...

Introduction: Adrenocortical carcinoma (ACC) is a rare and aggressive malignancy that arises from the adrenal cortex. It challenging disease to manage due its rarity, variable presentation, lack of effective systemic therapy options. Objectives: The main objective study find impact multimodal on margin status overall survival for patients undergoing adrenalectomy localized adrenocortical carcin...

We herein present a 60-year-old man with adrenocortical carcinoma who had gynecomastia. An endocrinological examination revealed increased levels of serum estradiol and dehydroepiandrosterone-sulfate (DHEA-S) and reduced levels of free testosterone. Magnetic resonance imaging showed an adrenal tumor with heterogeneous intensity. Iodine-131 adosterol scintigraphy showed an increased uptake at th...
