pubmed:abstractText
The authors report a series of 5 incidentalomas: 4 nonfunctioning adrenocortical adenomas and 1 nonfunctioning pheochromocytoma. They emphasise the importance of US, CT, MRN, and scintigraphy in differential diagnosis compared to laboratory tests. In addition, they affirm that a correct oncological approach necessarily involves radical surgery and rule out the possibility of adopting a "wait and see" policy based on relative factors such as tumour size, function and the patient's age. The authors suggest using a posterior or anterior access route depending on the nature and size of the incidentaloma and recommend reserving the lateral incision for special cases.
