Hýzlý Ýlerleyen Dev Metastatik Adrenal Kortikal Karsinom Olgusu

Adrenokortikal karsinom (AKK) nadir görülen, agresif bir tümördür. AKK’de yaygýn olarak kullanýlan mevcut tedavi seçeneklerine raðmen prognoz kötüdür. Genetik yatkýnlýk dýþýnda herhangi bir risk faktörü tanýmlanmamýþtýr. Prognozu etkileyen en önemli faktörler, taný anýndaki evre ve primer tümörün rezektabilitesidir. Bu yazýda, üç aydýr ayaklarda þiþlik, karýnda çizgilenme ve hafif karýn aðrýsý þikayetleri ile baþvuran 29 yaþýndaki kadýn hastada metastatik AKK olgusu sunulmaktadýr. Bilgisayarlý tomografide sað böbreküstü bezinde karaciðer ve sað böbrekten ayýrt edilemeyen 14 cm'lik kitle saptandý. Tedavi seçenekleri kýsýtlý olan primer AKK; ödem, obezite, stria gibi bulgularýn varlýðýnda ayýrýcý tanýda düþünülmelidir.

A Giant Metastatic Adrenal Cortical Carcinoma Case Presented with Rapid Progression

Adrenocortical carcinoma (ACC) is an uncommon and aggressive tumor. Despite the current treatment options commonly used in ACC, the prognosis is poor. No risk factors have been identified except for genetic predisposition. The most important factors affecting the prognosis are the stage at the time of diagnosis and the resectability of the primary tumor. Here, we present a metastatic ACC case of a 29-year-old woman presented with symptoms of swelling in her feet, abdominal striae, and mild abdominal pain for three months. The abdominal computed tomography scan revealed a 14 cm mass in the right adrenal gland, indistinguishable from the liver and right kidney. Clinicians should consider primary ACC, which has limited treatment options, in the differential diagnosis in the presence of findings such as edema, obesity, and striae.
