  • Title: Surgical management of isolated bilateral adrenal metastases from colon carcinoma causing adrenal insufficiency.
    Author: Crisci A, Cartei G, De Antoni P, Giannarini G, Moro U, Selli C.
    Journal: Urol Int; 2001; 67(1):113-6. PubMed ID: 11464135.
    Abstract:
    Adrenal insufficiency due to histologically proven bilateral metastatic adrenal involvement from colon cancer has been clinically reported only twice. Surgical treatment of bilateral adrenal metastases is seldom performed, since other metastatic localizations are usually concomitant. To the best of our knowledge, we report the first case of relatively long-term disease-free survival after bilateral adrenalectomy in a patient with adrenal insufficiency due to bilateral metastases from colon carcinoma.
