This case study reports a rare instance of a virilizing androgen-only secreting adrenal cortical adenoma in a 13-year-old, with symptom resolution after surgical removal.

This article reviews the regulation of androgens in human skin and adrenals, highlighting their role in skin disorders, but reports no new research findings.

This article reviews current evaluation and treatment options for androgenic alopecia in women and reports no new clinical results.

The document concludes that early diagnosis and treatment are crucial for managing skin diseases in ferrets.

This review describes two cases of young women with primary amenorrhea and hyperandrogenemia, suggesting that adrenal tumors should be considered in patients with significantly elevated circulating testosterone levels.

This article presents a diagnostic case in the Journal of Small Animal Practice and reports no new research findings.

In this case study, a 44-year-old woman with an adrenal adenoma secreting both cortisol and androgens developed Cushing syndrome and significant virilization, but experienced major symptom improvement following surgical removal of the benign tumor.

This case report describes a young woman with an adrenal oncocytic tumor of uncertain malignant potential, highlighting the need for ongoing surveillance due to possible malignancy.

This case report describes a rare instance of a patient with anorexia nervosa who was subsequently diagnosed with Cushing's syndrome, highlighting diagnostic challenges due to overlapping symptoms.
