Isolated DHEAS production by an adrenal neoplasm: Clinical, biochemical and pathologic characteristics

Isolated DHEAS production by an adrenal neoplasm: Clinical, biochemical and pathologic characteristics

Androgen-secreting adrenal neoplasms have a low incidence, usually secrete multiple hormones, and may present with hirsutism, acne, and alopecia. We report an exceedingly rare case of a purely dehydroepiandrosterone-sulfate (DHEA-S) secreting adrenal neoplasm found incidentally on cross sectional im...
