Consensus on the Treatment of Adrenocortical Carcinoma with Mitotane(2021)

Adrenocortical carcinoma (ACC) is a rare malignant tumor that occurs in the adrenal cortex, and surgery is the first choice for treating ACC. Medical therapy and radiotherapy are adjuvant treatments for patients with unresectable metastasized tumors or incomplete resection. Mitotane is the only adre...
