[Surgical experiences with adrenal tumors (author's transl)].
Between 1957 and 1978 the authors operated 15 patients with an adrenal tumor. This series includes six pheochromocytomas, seven cortical tumors, one adrenal cyst and one neuroblastoma. The specific diagnostic and therapeutic problems encountered in this group of different type tumors are discussed. In the group of six pheochromocytomas one was benign but recurred nine years later, one was a paraganglioma and one a malignant pheochromocytoma with functional glandular metastases. The seven cortical tumors are divided into one functional benign tumor, two non-functional benign tumors of which one was located outside the adrenal gland, two non-functional malignant tumors, one functional malignant tumor and one syndrome of Conn.
