Overview of adrenal cancer

Tumor diseases of the adrenal glands represent a diverse group of conditions — from randomly found benign formations to rare hormonally active or malignant tumors. The overview will help you navigate the main types and their specifics.

Adrenal incidentalomas
for patients

Adrenal tumors detected randomly during examination. Often benign, but hormonal activity and the risk of malignancy need to be assessed.

Pheochromocytomas and paragangliomas
for patients

Increasing pressure, palpitations and bouts of sweating? It may be a tumor that produces stress hormones.

Adrenocortical carcinoma (ACC)
for patients

A rare but aggressive tumor of the adrenal cortex. It can be hormonally active and often requires a quick and specialized solution.

Cushing's syndrome
for patients

Excessive fat deposition, weakness and high blood pressure can be manifestations of excessive cortisol production.

Adrenal tumors in children
for patients

Rare adrenal tumors in children require an experienced team. Early diagnosis and treatment are key.

Very rare adrenal tumors
for patients

A common finding in oncological patients, often asymptomatic. With bilateral involvement, there is a risk of severe adrenal insufficiency.

Metastases to the adrenal glands
for patients

Metastases to the adrenal glands tend to be common in cancer patients and often proceed without symptoms. They require careful diagnosis and treatment

Primary hyperaldo—steronism (Conn syndrome)
for patients

Tumor of the adrenal gland causing excessive production of aldosterone. A common cause of secondary hypertension, often well treatable.
