Mashup Score: 4Bilateral Adrenal Tumors: A Visual Case Series - 5 day(s) ago
Incidental adrenal masses are common, affecting > 6% of those above 60 years of age and are commonly unilateral and hormonally silent. The incidence of these tumors has risen sharply in recent years, and a minority of patients may have incidentally discovered bilateral masses.1,2 The vast majority of adrenal incidentalomas are benign, nonfunctional tumors of adrenocortical origin; however, these also include hormone-secreting adrenocortical adenomas, adrenocortical carcinomas (ACCs), myelolipomas, pheochromocytomas, adrenal lymphomas, and metastatic disease.

Mashup Score: 9Nephrotic Syndrome as a Complication of Systemic Calcitonin Amyloidosis From Long-Standing Metastatic Medullary Thyroid Cancer - 1 month(s) ago
Medullary thyroid cancer often results in elevated calcitonin levels, which can cause localized formation of calcitonin amyloid, though rarely complications of systemic calcitonin amyloidosis have been reported. The objective of this report is to encourage awareness of calcitonin amyloid causing nephrotic syndrome in patients with metastatic medullary thyroid cancer.
