Many Faces of Adrenal Lesions in a Large Patient Cohort: What Has Changed Over the Last Two Decades?
Objective: To review the presentation characteristics, clinical and hormonal evaluations, and histopathological results of patients with adrenal lesions over a 21-year period and evaluate the changes across the two decades.
Methods: This single-center, retrospective study included 1003 patients with adrenal lesions who presented to our department between 2000 and 2021. Clinical, metabolic, hormonal, radiological, and pathological data of the patients were collected.
Results: Forty-seven percent of the lesions were non-functioning adrenal adenomas. Possible autonomous and autonomous cortisol secretion were detected in 22.2% of the patients. The percentages of the patients diagnosed with pheochromocytoma, primary hyperaldosteronism, adrenal Cushing syndrome, adrenocortical carcinoma, and adrenal metastasis were 7.4%, 4.8%, 4.7%, 0.9%, and 5.6%, respectively. Adrenalectomy was performed in 31.3% of the patients. Functional adrenal lesions were the leading cause of surgery (46.5%), followed by large size and/or suspicious imaging features (38.6%). Among the patients referred to surgery due to large size (≥6 cm), the diagnosis in 19% was metastasis, and in 12.1%, it was primary adrenocortical carcinoma. In patients with adrenal lesions with a size of 4-6 cm and suspicious imaging properties, the rates of metastasis and primary adrenocortical carcinoma were 44.4% and 4.8%, respectively. From the first to the second decade, major differences in presentation characteristics were increased detection of bilateral lesions and increased prevalence of possible autonomous and autonomous cortisol secretion.
Conclusions: Adrenal lesions are common in the adult population, and while it is important to avoid overtreatment, hormone secretion, and malignancy should not be overlooked.
期刊介绍:
Publishing outstanding articles from all fields of endocrinology and diabetology, from molecular biology to clinical research, this journal is a brilliant resource. Since being published in English in 1983, the popularity of this journal has grown steadily, reflecting the importance of this publication within its field.
Original contributions and short communications appear in each issue along with reviews addressing current topics. In addition, supplementary issues are published each year presenting abstracts or proceedings of national and international scientific meetings.
The journal was initially published in German and is still the oldest endocrinological periodical in the German-language market!
