ABSTRACT
Objective:
To compare the characteristics of serum adrenocortical hormone profiles detected by liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry in patients with adrenal cortical carcinoma and adrenal adenoma.Methods:
A total of 23 patients with adrenal cortical carcinoma and 119 patients with adrenal cortical adenoma/hyperplasia who visited the Department of Endocrinology and/or the Department of Urology of Peking University First Hospital from January 2018 to June 2022 were analyzed retrospectively. The imaging characteristics and serum adrenal cortical hormone profiles detected by liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry were analyzed retrospectively. The independent related factors of adrenal cortical carcinoma were screened by univariate analysis and multivariate logistic regression analysis.Results:
The age of patients with adrenal cortical carcinoma was 46 (35, 57) years, and 15 (65.2%) were female; The age of adrenal cortical adenoma patients was 49 (40, 58) years old, and 80 (67.2%) were female. There was no significant difference in age and gender between the two groups (all P values>0.05). The maximum tumor diameter M (Q1, Q3) of patients with adrenocortical carcinoma was 7.05 (5.45, 9.78) cm, which was larger than that of patients with adrenocortical adenoma [2.1 (1.6, 3.0) cm] (P<0.001). Compared with patients with adrenal adenoma, the androstenedione (AD) of patients with adrenal cortical carcinoma [4.056 9 (1.619 5, 7.907 9) nmol/L vs 1.517 5 (0.935 1, 2.582 1) nmol/L (P<0.001)] was significantly increased; 11-ketotestosterone/11-ketoandrostenedione [0.034 3 (0.020 6, 0.079 2) vs 0.041 0 (0.028 6, 0.061 5) (P=0.089)] and 11-ketoandrostenedione/11-hydroxyandrostenedione [0.013 0 (0.006 4, 0.086 7) vs 0.063 0 (0.018 2, 0.162 5) (P=0.042)] were significantly decreased. Multivariate analysis found that AD, the largest diameter of the tumor, 11-ketotestosterone/11-ketoandrostenedione and 11-ketoandrostenedione/11-hydroxyandrostenedi-one were related factors for adrenal cortical carcinoma, with OR values (95%CI) of 1.841 (1.093-3.100), 5.130 (2.332-11.285), 0.381 (0.167-0.867) and 0.000 (0.000-0.014), respectively, all P values <0.05.Conclusions:
The larger diameter of adrenal cortical tumor and the higher the level of androstenedione are independent risk factors for adrenal cortical carcinoma. The reduction conversion of 11-hydroxyandrostenedione to 11-ketoandrostenedione and 11-ketoandrostenedione to 11-ketotestosterone were independently associated with adrenal cortical carcinoma.
