title: Recurrent adrenal cortical carcinoma with Cushing's syndrome: twenty-five-year follow-up of a patient.
abstract: A 43-year-old female patient is currently being treated by us for a recurrence of adrenal cortical carcinoma associated with Cushing's syndrome and virilization. Despite many relapses of metastatic spread she has not only survived for 25 yr after the removal of the primary tumor but also until now preserved her ability to work in a textile factory.
