A large number of adrenal tumors are now identified either incidentally or associated with a metastatic workup for cancer. While the vast majority of these lesions are benign, those that prove to be primary or secondary cancers are traditionally treated with surgical resection. A wide variety of alternative, less invasive therapies exist. One of these, thermal ablation, is examined herein. J. Surg. Oncol. 2012; 106:626–631. © 2012 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
