Abstract:
Adrenocortical oncocytomas are exceptionally rare and most are benign and nonfunctioning. Only 3 cases of adrenal oncocytomas have been reported in the Korean literature and all of them were nonfunctioning. Herein, we report a case of a functioning adrenocortical oncocytoma in a 49-year-old man who presented with Cushing syndrome.
