Neoplasms are the most common diseases of the adrenal glands. In many cases these can be benign tumors aka adrenal adenomas that are easily cured with timely treatment. However, malignant tumors also occur frequently, and they, in turn, pose too much a danger to be considered easy to handle.

Symptoms and treatment

Some of the symptoms may appear as:

• increased blood pressure that cannot be reduced by conventional antihypertensive drugs;

• general and muscle weakness, immune deficiency, irritability;

• rapid weight gain, skin darkening, etc.

The following procedures can be performed in order to confirm pathology in adrenal glands, to eliminate its symptoms and prescribe effective treatment:

• hormonal activity assessment of the tumor that consists of urine and blood tests to identify the level of adrenal hormones;

• adrenal ultrasound, MRI and PET;

• biopsy under visual control, when needed.
