Overview
Symptoms of adrenocortical carcinoma include symptoms of androgen, glucocorticoid, mineralocorticoid, or estrogen excess. Symptoms of glucocorticoid excess include Weight gain, Acne, irritability. Symptoms of androgen excess include hirsutism, acne, and deepening of the voice. Symptoms of mineralocorticoid excess include headache, muscle weakness, Confusion, and palpitations.
Common Symptoms
60 percent of adrenocortical carcinoma (ACC) are sufficiently secretory to present clinical syndrome of hormone excess.[1]
- 45% of ACCs show symptoms of Cushing's syndrome alone
- 25% present with mixed overproduction of both glucocorticoids and androgens.[2]
- 10% present with virilization alone
1- Symptoms of glucocorticoid excess include:[3]
2- Symptoms of androgen excess symptoms in women include:[4]
- Excess facial and body hair
- Acne
- Deepening of the voice
- Coarsening of facial features
- Cessation of menstruation
3- Symptoms of mineralocorticoid excess include:[5]
4- Symptoms of estrogen excess in men include:[6]
- Gynecomastia
- Decreased libido
- Impotence
5- Symptoms of catecholamines excess has been reported in adrenocortical cancers:[7]
6- Other symptoms may include:[8]
- Abdominal lump
- Abdominal or back pain
- Abdominal fullness
7- Children usually present with virilization (84%), while isolated glucocorticoid excess is much less common (6%).[9]
