ODP050 Oncocytic Adrenocortical Carcinoma Presenting with Hematuria

Abstract

Abstract Introduction Adrenocortical carcinoma (ACC) is rare and aggressive endocrine tumor. It is commonly noticed due to symptoms of hormone excess, mass-effect, or incidentalomas. Different histological variants are noted, which include: oncocytic, myxoid, sarcomatoid, and the conventional subtype. The oncocytic variant is usually seen on the left side, and usually presents with symptoms of mass-effect. Only around 17% were noted to be functional. We present an interesting case of ACC (oncocytic type) which presented with hematuria. Case Presentation 70-year-old female with a history of morbid obesity, hypertension, anxiety, GERD, tubular adenoma, hyperlipidemia, and lumbar radiculopathy came in to see her primary care for hematuria and back pain. She has a long-standing history of back pain, for which she has had an EMG, which showed mild axonal polyneuropathy and bilateral L5 radiculopathy. Apart from hematuria, she denies any other urinary complaints. Additionally, she denied any fever, chills, nausea, abdominal pain, sweating, tremor, headache, palpitations, easy bruising, fractures, muscle weakness, hirsutism, or changes in her weight. She has a family history of pancreatic cancer and is currently retired, and denies alcohol, tobacco, or recreational drug use. A KUB X-ray was ordered which showed calcification in the left upper quadrant, concerning for a splenic artery aneurysm; this led to a CTA abdomen, which showed a large 7.2 cm heterogenous enhancing solid left adrenal mass, concerning for primary adrenal carcinoma, which was new compared to imaging 2 years ago. Also seen was a 0.7 cm enhancing right hepatic lobe lesion, along with a 1.5 cm splenic artery aneurysm. Following this, an abdomen MRI with contrast showed a 7×7×7 cm solid heterogeneously enhancing left upper quadrant mass beside the left adrenal gland and pancreas. Subsequently, a CT guided needle biopsy was done, which revealed scant adrenal tissue. PET scan showed a hypermetabolic mass, arising from the left adrenal, consistent with adrenal carcinoma. At this point, an endocrinology referral was placed, and other lab work including 24-hour urine free cortisol, DHEA-S, 24-hour urine metanephrine, and aldosterone/renin ratio was done. DHEA-S level was elevated at 264 mcg/dl (12-133). She was then transferred to a tertiary care facility, where she underwent a left adrenalectomy, para-aortic lymphadenectomy, nephrectomy, splenectomy, and distal pancreatectomy. Pathology confirmed adrenal cortical carcinoma (oncocytic type), with negative margins, Ki-67 labelling index of 25%, and no lymphovascular invasion, pT2pNO. She was then discharged home with visiting nurses. Conclusion Oncocytic ACC is an infrequent tumor, which presents with symptoms of mass effect, and definitive diagnosis requires histopathological assessment. The Lin–Weiss–Bisceglia (LWB) system and Helsinki score help establish malignant potential. Fortunately, it has a decreased tendency to metastasize and a better prognosis than other ACC subtypes. Further studies to understand oncocytic ACC are needed. Presentation: No date and time listed
