Risk of malignancy in adrenal tumors in patients with a history of cancer.

Risk of malignancy of adrenal mass in a patient with a history of cancer is high (47,2%), regardless of hormonal status. 47,2% risk of malignancy. In preoperative assessment type of primary cancer, adrenal tumour size and native density on CT should be taken into consideration as predictive factors of malignancy. Native density exceeding 24 HU was the strongest risk factor of adrenal malignancy (RR 3.23), followed by history of lung or renal cancer (RR 2.82) and maximum tumor diameter over 37 mm (RR 2.14).
