    Diagnosing nonfunctioning adrenocortical carcinomas is challenging due to vague symptoms. Intravenous urography with nephrotomography offers the best detection, with surgery as the primary treatment for these adrenal tumors.

    Area of Science:

    • Endocrinology
    • Oncology
    • Radiology

    Background:

    • Nonfunctioning adrenocortical carcinomas present diagnostic challenges.
    • Vague clinical presentations often delay diagnosis.

    Observation:

    • Presents two cases of nonfunctioning adrenocortical carcinomas.
    • Details clinical features, operative findings, and histopathology.

    Findings:

    • Intravenous urography with nephrotomography is the most effective diagnostic imaging modality.
    • Surgical intervention is the recommended treatment approach.

    Implications:

    • Highlights the importance of advanced imaging in diagnosing rare adrenal cancers.
    • Emphasizes surgical management for improved patient outcomes in adrenocortical carcinoma.
