Abstract

Massive hemorrhage from an adrenocortical carcinoma seldom occurs in the retroperitoneal or abdominal cavity. We report a case of spontaneous rupture of primary adrenocortical carcinoma occurring in an adolescent. A right adrenalectomy with complete removal of the tumor was performed successfully.
