(A) Cortisol producing adenoma. Female, 57-year-old. Bright yellow nodule, 6.5×5×4.3cm, 65.15gm, with small areas of adipose tissue suggestive for myelolipoma. (B) Adrenal cortical carcinoma. Male, 64-year-old. This tumor measured 9.5cm and weighted 300g. The capsule is infiltrated and the cut surface has a variegated pattern. (C) Pheochromocytoma of the adrenal gland. Female, 45-year-old. Well circumscribed nodule, 6.5×5.5cm, 71.52g, the cut surface is gray-tan, homogeneous. (D) Adrenal cortical adenoma. The tumor cells are arranged in small nests and have clear cytoplasm; there are also small areas in which the cells have eosinophilic cytoplasm. (E) Adrenal cortical carcinoma. The growth pattern is solid, there is nuclear pleomorphism and the cytoplasms are eosinophilic. Mitoses are easily found. (F) Pheochromocytoma. The tumor cells are arranged in the characteristic ‘zell-ballen’ architecture. Nuclear pleomorphism is mild and mitotic figures are absent.
