In a hip multicenter study, researchers spilled the tea on adrenal cancer secrets. Analyzing 807 patients, they unveiled that mixed cortisol/androgen-secreting adrenal tumors play hard on survival, with worse overall survival compared to solo cortisol or androgen secrets. Notably, after a clean R0 surgery, the secretory subtype didn’t sway overall survival. Cortisol-secreting tumors spilled more drama, showing worse disease-free survival. Ki67%, a cellular diva, stood out as a reliable predictor, holding its own regardless of the cancer stage.
