Experts highlight how adrenal disorders such as Conn’s syndrome and Cushing’s syndrome can silently damage the kidneys.

Cortisol-producing adenomas (CPAs) are preceded by the development of steroids-producing nodules (SPNs) with two distinct layers — one tumorigenic and one tumor suppressive — reported Japanese ...

Patients with adrenal adenoma had a higher prevalence of obesity, low socioeconomic status, tobacco use, and diabetes 5-10 years before diagnosis than control individuals with prior imaging but no ...

Surgical and conservative management show similar impacts on CV risk and mortality in bilateral adrenal tumors and cortisol excess.

A case report published in BMC Surgery by Jia Li. and colleagues has shown that a hemorrhagic gastric diverticulum can very ...

Instead, the vast majority of these lipid-poor adenomas can be characterized employing a CT washout study. This imaging methodology quantitates loss of contrast enhancement by a lesion and thus ...

Kyushu University researchers have uncovered a surprising layer of complexity in aldosterone-producing adenomas (APAs)—adrenal gland tumors that drive high blood pressure. Using cutting-edge analysis ...

Adrenal tumor ablation techniques offer a minimally invasive alternative to conventional surgical resection for both benign and malignant adrenal lesions. These methods employ various modalities – ...

By far the most common causes of Conn syndrome are bilateral adrenal hyperplasia (also known as idiopathic hyperplasia) and aldosterone-secreting adrenal adenoma, accounting for 60% and 35% of the ...

In the study, [68Ga]Ga-Pentixafor PET/CT was well tolerated and demonstrated high specificity and moderate sensitivity for identifying unilateral aldosterone-producing adenomas compared with adrenal ...
