Abstract

A woman presented with a history of weight loss and muscle weakness. A laboratory test revealed hypokalemia and elevation of plasma 11-deoxycorticosterone (DOC). CT showed a left adrenal mass. A left adrenalectomy was performed. The histological and immunohistochemical diagnosis showed a DOC-producing adrenocortical carcinoma. This cancer is very rare; only 10 cases including the present case have appeared in the literature.
