Normal delivery following resection of an androgen‐secreting adrenal carcinoma

A 31‐year‐old female presented to a gynecological clinic complaining of amenorrhea and virilism over a 2‐month period. Blood tests revealed high serum total testosterone and free testosterone levels. A left adrenal tumor was identified following computed tomography and she was referred to our clinic where a laparoscopic left adrenalectomy was performed. The tumor weighed 98 g and the pathological diagnosis according to Weiss’ criteria was adrenocortical carcinoma. The post‐operative course was uneventful; her serum free testosterone level normalized and regular menstruation was observed 1 month post‐operatively. The patient became pregnant 1 year later, resulting in the normal delivery of a girl.
