Area of Science:

  • Endocrinology
  • Oncology
  • Pathology

Context:

  • Oncocytic neoplasms of the adrenal gland are exceptionally rare.
  • Literature review indicates only 27 cases reported worldwide.
  • This study presents findings from three additional adrenal oncocytic tumors.

Purpose:

  • To describe the clinicopathologic and immunohistochemical characteristics of three oncocytic tumors of the adrenal cortex.
  • To contribute to the limited existing literature on this rare tumor type.

Summary:

  • Three cases of adrenal oncocytic tumors were analyzed.
  • Two tumors were incidentally discovered and hormonally inactive.
  • One tumor presented with virilization; immunohistochemistry showed positivity for neuron-specific enolase, synaptophysin, and cytokeratins.

Impact:

  • Adds to the scarce case reports of adrenal oncocytic neoplasms.
  • Highlights diagnostic markers and potential clinical presentations.
  • Underscores the need for established criteria for evaluating the biological behavior of these rare tumors.
