Abstract

Abstract : Oncocytic adrenocortical carcinoma is a rare histopathological variant of adrenocortical carcinoma with very few instances reported in the literature to date. With progressive research, new insights have emerged in the molecular profiling of these tumours. This advancement has led to more clarity in reporting of this tumour. We report a case of oncocytic adrenocortical carcinoma with its attending clinical presentation, immunohistochemical profiling and characteristic electron microscopy findings.
