摘要
Sarcomatoid carcinoma of the adrenal gland represents an exceedingly unusual and highly aggressive form of adrenocortical carcinoma. Its diagnosis is challenging because of its dual histological components: epithelial and sarcomatoid. Most patients are diagnosed at a late stage and die within months of diagnosis. We report on a 51 -year -old man who had adrenocortical sarcomatoid cancer. It was diagnosed as a unilateral left adrenal incidentaloma discovered on a CT scan carried out for abdominal pain. By means of this case, we will present the clinical, radiological, and histological profile of this tumor.
