Abstract

El avance y desarrollo en las técnicas diagnósticas ha condicionado un importante incremento en el diagnóstico de tumores adrenales. En este estudio, de un total de 25356 participantes, en 351 se encontró un tumor adrenal, lo que supone una prevalencia del 1,4%. No obstante, sólo el 30,7% de ellos eran adenomas funcionantes.
