Myelolipomatous Adrenal Masses Causing Cushing's Syndrome
Experimental and Clinical Endocrinology & Diabetes, 04/21/09
Lamas C et al. - The authors report two cases of large mixed adrenal tumors, with heterogeneous appearance and areas of fat density in imaging techniques, and with autonomous cortisol production leading to Cushing's syndrome. Both underwent adrenalectomy and the histological study showed an adrenocortical adenoma with widespread myelolipomatous metaplasia. Hypercortisolism resolved in the one patient that could be evaluated after surgery.
