[Bilateral adrenal masses during clinical staging of renal carcinoma]. / Masas adrenales bilaterales durante el estadiaje clínico del carcinoma renal.

ABSTRACT

We report a case of renal adenocarcinoma with bilateral adrenal masses at the time of diagnosis. Owing to the methods currently used for clinical staging, this association is no longer infrequently observed. Experience has demonstrated the value of the diagnostic techniques in this condition. The use of some of these techniques will depend on the findings during clinical staging of the tumor. Well-selected cases with metastasis to the adrenal gland can benefit from surgery.
