Abstract

Adrenocortical carcinoma is a rare malignant tumor of the adrenal cortex with an unfavorable prognosis. In 2017, the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) and the World Health Organization (WHO) published the 4th edition of the WHO Classification of Tumors of Endocrine Organs. The updated classification reflects a multidisciplinary experience in diagnosing and predicting the course of adrenal cortex tumors, obtained on the basis of current studies. This paper highlights the key provisions of the updated WHO classification for adrenocortical carcinoma.

Адренокортикальный рак - это редкая злокачественная опухоль коры надпочечников с неблагоприятным прогнозом. В 2017 г. Международное агентство по изучению рака (International Agency for Researchon Cancer, IARC) и Всемирная организация здравоохранения (ВОЗ) опубликовали 4-е издание Классификации опухолей эндокринных органов (WHO Classification of Tumours of Endocrine Organs). Обновленная классификация отражает мультидисциплинарный опыт в диагностике и прогнозировании течения опухолей коры надпочечников, полученный на основании современных исследований. Настоящая статья освещает ключевые положения обновленной классификации ВОЗ по проблеме адренокортикального рака.
