Adrenal incidentaloma: a new cause of the metabolic syndrome?

TL;DR: Many patients with incidental adrenal adenoma display altered glucose tolerance, that may be explained by reduced insulin sensitivity, and increased blood pressure levels in comparison with carefully age- and BMI-matched controls.
Journal ArticleDOI

Retrospective Evaluation of the Outcome of Open Versus Laparoscopic Adrenalectomy for Stage I and II Adrenocortical Cancer

TL;DR: There is interesting evidence that OA and LA may be comparable in terms of recurrence-free survival for patients with stage I and II ACC when the principles of surgical oncology are respected.
Journal ArticleDOI

Plasma concentrations of o,p'DDD, o,p'DDA, and o,p'DDE as predictors of tumor response to mitotane in adrenocortical carcinoma: results of a retrospective ENS@T multicenter study.

TL;DR: The data confirm the value of o,p'DDD plasma monitoring as well as targeting the 14 mg/liter cutoff level in the therapeutic management of ACC patients and suggest additional benefit of higher levels of o',p' DDD and combined measurement of o'DDE and o, p'DDA.
