Abstract:
In order to investigate the distribution and diagnosis of adrenal tumors, 282 cases of patients who had undergone adrenalectomy in our hospital from March 1993 to December 2001 were reviewed. There were 147 (52 1%) women and 135 (47 9%) men, with a mean age of 43 6?13 0 (3~75) years. Of the 282 patients, 83 patients (29 4%) were operated on because of hyperaldosteronism, 59 (20 9%) pheochromocytoma, 27 (9 5%) hypercortisolism, 105 (37 2%) incidentaloma, 36 (12 8%) malignant tumors and 13 (4 6%) for other reasons. The average diameter of adrenal tumors was 4 8?3 4 (0 3~22 5)cm. The size of tumor mass was smallestin hyperaldosteronism, while the largest was malignant tumor. The conformation rate of the preoperative diagnosis and pathological findings was 65 2%.
