dc.description.abstractOncocytic neoplasms of the adrenal cortex are uncommon and generally benign and non-functioning. About 20% of adrenocortical oncocyticneoplasms show malignant components. A 39-year-old woman with an adrenocortical oncocytic carcinoma is reported in this article. The patientpresented with mild right-sided pain. Computed tomography (CT) showed a 3 cm x 2 cm tumor in the right adrenal gland. The mass was atypical foradrenal adenoma and follow-up was recommended. Follow-up CT after 1 year showed tumor growth (5 cm) and the patient underwent laparoscopicsurgery for pathologic verification. She was diagnosed as oncocytic adrenocortical carcinoma based on the pathologic diagnostic criteria. Due to theirrarity, especially in cases of malignancy, there are no clear treatment and follow-up protocols. Curative surgical treatment should aim for completeexcision of the tumor. As the literature about these tumors develops, more information about the nature of the disease will come to light.
