[Malignant adrenocortical tumor as a part of Wermer's syndrome. Apropos of a case]
Abstract
The authors report a case of malignant adrenal carcinoma associated with nodular adrenal hyperplasia as part of Wermer (N.E.M.I.) type pathological polyendocrinopathy syndrome. They stress the prognostic importance of the glandular degeneration and the type of adrenal involvement in these "multiple endocrine neoplasia".
