Abstract

Adrenocortical carcinoma (ACC) is a rare and aggressive malignancy. Most patients present with steroid hormone excess or abdominal mass effect. Pure androgen-secreting ACCs are rare, while Hypoglycemia is an unusual presentation of this malignancy. We present a 26-year-old woman with Hypoglycemia and history of adrenalectomy due to a large adrenal mass which was diagnosed as nonfunctional adrenal adenoma. She was admitted in our hospital 10 days after her fetal loss with repeated episodes of severe Hypoglycemia. She had a high serum dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate (DHEA-S) and her Hypoglycemia was associated with low Insulin and C-peptide levels. Imaging revealed liver metastasis and immunohistochemical studies of the biopsied lesions confirmed the diagnosis of ACC.
