ADRENOCORTICAL CARCINOMA IN INFANT WITH IVC EXTENSION
Abstract
Primary adrenocortical carcinoma is a relatively rare malignancy in infancy and childhood. It is a highly malignant and locally invasive tumor. Local extension can occur by vascular and visceral invasion. There has been a few isolated cases of adrenocortical carcinoma with vena caval involvement in infancy and childhood. We report one case of a 10 month- old infant of an adrenocortical carcinoma with vena caval involvement. The diagnosis is depicted by ultrasonography, computed tomography and pathologic correlation.
