Abstract

BACKGROUND: Adrenal incidentalomas are radiologically discovered tumors that represent a variety of pathologies, with the diagnosis clinched only on surgical pathology. These tumors may be clinically monitored, but triggers for surgery include size > 4 cm, concerning features on radiology, or hormonally functioning. Adrenal oncocytic neoplasms (AONs) are notably rare and typically nonfunctional tumors that are discovered as incidentalomas and exist on a spectrum of malignant potential.
