Introduction: Adrenal gland is a bipartite endocrine gland divided into cortex and medulla. As their developments are different, a wide range of tumours are encountered. We have presented here adrenal tumors of varied histomorphology, in one year study from August 2013 to July 2014, at Gandhi Hospital, Hyderabad. Aim and objectives: To study the spectrum of adrenal tumors diagnosed at Gandhi hospital for over a period of one year, correlation with clinical features and an overview of the pit falls encountered. Materials and methods: All the adrenal gland specimens submitted to the Department of Pathology, Gandhi Hospital, Hyderabad, from August 2013 to July 2014 were included in the study. These specimens were subjected to routine processing and ancillary techniques were used to arrive at final diagnosis.
