This case study describes an extremely rare instance of androgen-secreting adrenocortical carcinoma in a patient with non-classical congenital adrenal hyperplasia.

In this study, a 49-year-old female with metastatic adrenocortical carcinoma experienced an abscopal effect following pulse electric field ablation, suggesting potential as an adjunct to systemic immunotherapy for liver tumors.

This case study reported a 49-year-old woman with metastatic adrenocortical carcinoma who experienced an abscopal effect after pulse electric field ablation, leading to the resolution of three untreated liver lesions, suggesting potential benefits of this treatment combined with immunotherapy.

This case report describes a 49-year-old woman with metastatic adrenocortical carcinoma in the liver who experienced an abscopal effect after pulse electric field ablation, with PET/CT imaging showing complete resolution of three untreated lesions two months post-treatment.

This study found that serum steroid profiling, particularly 11-deoxycortisol, can effectively differentiate between ACC and ACA, while considering sex differences and functional status for other steroids is important.

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 study suggests that high proliferative activity and peripheral invasion are key indicators of malignancy in canine sebaceous gland tumours. It also reports a higher incidence of circumanal gland and testicular tumours, indicating a possible androgen-related pathway in tumour development.

This report describes a complex case of postmenopausal hyperandrogenism with virilization and concurrent rare ovarian tumors, highlighting the critical role of interdisciplinary collaboration in diagnosing and managing such challenging scenarios.

This case report highlights a rare diagnosis of an androgen-secreting adrenal tumor in a patient with hyperandrogenism and virilization symptoms, emphasizing the role of gynecologists in early detection.

A postmenopausal woman's virilization was caused by a rare ovarian tumor that was hard to detect but was successfully treated with surgery.

This case report describes a 60-year-old woman with an ovarian Leydig cell tumor leading to elevated testosterone levels and hirsutism, highlighting the need to consider androgen-secreting tumors in similar postmenopausal cases.

This case study of a young Palestinian woman illustrates the diagnostic and treatment challenges of ovarian steroid cell tumors, highlighting the importance of detailed examination when hormonal therapy fails.

This case report highlights a Palestinian woman with a rare ovarian steroid cell tumor, underscoring the diagnostic challenges and potential for disease progression despite treatment attempts with various chemotherapy regimens.

This case report describes a 57-year-old woman's virilizing adrenal tumor effectively treated with the antiandrogen cyproterone acetate, which led to symptom reversal and tumor resolution.

This study describes the case of a Filipino woman with virilisation, where a rare ovarian Leydig cell tumour was identified and removed, normalizing her testosterone levels.

This review examines the potential of K18 as a diagnostic and prognostic marker in epithelial-derived tumors, highlighting its specific expression in tumor tissues and interaction with proteins involved in tumor progression, without reporting new clinical findings.

In this study, a plasma-fluorescent corticoid test effectively differentiated patients with adrenal insufficiency from those with normal adrenal function based on their response to corticotropin.

This review discusses the regulation of hair growth, causes of excessive androgen secretion, and current safe solutions for hyperandrogenism manifestations in women but reports no new clinical results.

This review discusses the physicochemical properties, binding mechanisms, and factors affecting corticosteroid-binding globulin (CBG) functions, but reports no new clinical results.

This chapter reviews hyperadrenocorticism in ferrets, covering its causes, symptoms, diagnosis, and treatment options, but reports no new research findings.

This report presents a case of functioning adrenocortical oncocytoma in a 9-year-old girl with virilization symptoms, successfully treated with laparoscopic surgery.

This case report highlighted a rare occurrence of both adrenocortical carcinoma and uric acid kidney stones in a 5-year-old boy, with hormonal levels and clinical symptoms returning to normal after treatment and no recurrence over four years, emphasizing comprehensive endocrine evaluations in pediatric ACC management.

This case study reports the first Palestinian case of an ovarian steroid cell tumor with virilization in a young female, highlighting the challenges in diagnosis and varied chemotherapeutic responses.

This paper reviews causes of hirsutism in women and emphasizes the importance of identifying underlying conditions for risk assessment, though it reports no new clinical findings.

In this case study, researchers observed a 5.8-year-old male with peripheral precocious puberty due to a germ cell tumor, marked by elevated human chorionic gonadotropin levels. Treatment normalized hormone levels and arrested the puberty progression, highlighting melatonin's potential role in transitions to central precocious puberty.

This review highlights the eye and skin manifestations of endocrine-related metabolic diseases but provides no new clinical results.

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.

This review discusses the definition of polycystic ovary syndrome proposed by the AE-PCOS Society Task Force, emphasizing hyperandrogenism, ovarian dysfunction, and excluding related disorders, while noting potential variations needing more research.

This review discusses the pathophysiology, diagnosis, and treatment of congenital adrenal hyperplasia, but reports no new research results.

This review discusses the physiological skin changes during pregnancy and reports no new clinical results, emphasizing the importance of distinguishing these changes from pathological conditions.
