title: Solitary adrenal metastatic lesion in a patient with a history of prostate cancer.
abstract: Prostate cancer is the most commonly diagnosed malignancy among American men. Although prostate cancer-related death approximates only 3%, advanced disease can become widely disseminated. Metastatic disease is often found in a number of common sites. We report the uncommon presentation of a solitary adrenal lesion treated with surgical resection.
