Adrenal cortical carcinoma is a rare cancer of the hormone-producing adrenal glands above the kidneys. It may announce itself through hormone excess (weight gain, high blood pressure, virilisation) or as a mass found on scans.
Diagnosed at another hospital? You’re welcome too, with no commitment to start treatment at CION.
Adrenal cortical carcinoma is a rare cancer of the hormone-producing adrenal glands above the kidneys. It may announce itself through hormone excess (weight gain, high blood pressure, virilisation) or as a mass found on scans. Surgery by an experienced team is the cornerstone of treatment.
Most of these have other causes too. If one lasts, see a doctor.
Having a risk factor doesn’t mean you will get cancer.
Hormonal blood and urine panels characterise function; CT/MRI define the mass and PET-CT helps stage. Biopsy is rarely needed and avoided in resectable tumours.
Many of these tests can be arranged by your CION team in Sangareddy.
Your plan depends on the type and stage of the cancer and on your overall health. CION’s tumour board agrees on it with you.

CION treats these and other cancers. Not sure about yours? Ask when you call.
Usually not — small "incidentalomas" are common and mostly benign. Size, imaging features, and hormone testing decide whether removal or follow-up is advised.
Biopsy rarely changes the plan for a resectable adrenal mass and risks tumour spillage; complete surgical removal is both diagnosis and treatment.
After removal of one adrenal gland, the other usually compensates. Temporary steroid support is needed in some situations, managed with the endocrinologist.
CION’s doctors see patients in Sangareddy at partner hospitals (Manjeera Hospital, Hope Hospital, Star Hospital, Dr. Lalitha Fertility, Sri Sanvi Hospital (Narayankhed), Amrutha Hospital (Narayankhed), Sai Sanjeevani Hospital (Narayankhed)).
