Abstract
Adrenocortical Carcinoma (ACC) are rare tumors that have a bimodal distribution, the first peak is in children less than five years and the second around the fifth decade [1]. Although most adult ACC are non-functional, in the pediatric age group, nearly 95% are functional [2]. Virilization is the most common abnormality and Cushing’s syndrome and hyperaldosteronism are less frequent [3]. We begin the review with a clinical case of a 16-month-old infant, and then we will discuss this very rare pathology as well as its management.
