Adrenal nodules? What's going on?

If adrenal nodules are found, the causes are complex, including benign and malignant lesions. Benign lesions include adrenal cysts, adrenal adenomas, etc. Malignant lesions include metastases, adrenal cortical carcinoma, etc. The most common nodules are adrenal adenomas. If adrenal adenoma has endocrine function, it may cause high blood pressure, low potassium, soreness of waist and knees, general weakness, and even palpitation, chest distress, headache, sweating and other manifestations. Therefore, patients who find adrenal nodules should clarify the specific nature of the nodules and consider the need for surgical resection.
