Our center, in cooperation with the Department of Pediatric Hematology and Oncology at Motol University Hospital and the Children's Clinic at Olomouc University Hospital, provides comprehensive care for children and adolescents with adrenal tumors. Although these are rare diseases, they can be serious and require the collaboration of experienced specialists.
The adrenal glands can be affected by several types of tumors in children. Among the most common are:
Every health problem has its own context. If you are hesitant about what is best for you, arrange a consultation. Our doctors will walk you through the situation and recommend a course of action that makes sense — professionally, sensitively, without unnecessary stress.
A hereditary cause is common with these tumors. Therefore, genetic testing is recommended for every child, as it can help us better understand the disease and choose the most appropriate treatment.
Symptoms depend on the type of tumor. They may include high blood pressure, heart palpitations, sudden mood swings, signs of early puberty, or unusual changes in physical appearance. Each type of tumor manifests itself a little differently.
Treatment depends on the specific type of tumor and the child's overall condition. The most common approach is surgical removal of the tumor. In some cases, chemotherapy, immunotherapy, or radiation therapy may also be required.
Because these tumors are rare and often aggressive, the child should always be treated at a specialized center by experienced professionals who have expertise in these specific diagnoses.
