Abstract | Adrenocortical carcinoma (ACC) is a rare cancer with an estimated incidence of 0.7 to 2.0 cases per 1 million population per year in the United States. It is an aggressive cancer originating in the cortex of the adrenal gland with a poor prognosis. The 5-year survival rate is less than 15% among patients with metastatic disease. In this article, we review the epidemiology and pathogenesis of ACC, the diagnostic procedures, the prognostic classification of ACC, and the treatment options from localized and resectable forms to advanced disease detailing recent therapeutic developments such as immunotherapy and molecularly targeted therapy. |
