To read the full abstract: Endocr Relat Cancer. 2019; 26(1): 103–117.Incidence of adrenocortical carcinomas shows a bimodal distribution, being more common in children <10 years and in adults aged 40–50 years. Their prognosis is poor, with only 10–25% 5-year survival. Ectopic expression of LHCGR and GNRHR has been reported in ACTH-independent adrenal hyperplasia ...
