[Atypical adrenopathy].

From 1985 to 1990, we treated 60 patients with adrenopathy, in which 4 (6.6%) had atypical adrenopathy. In the 4 patients, 1 showed Cushing's syndrome caused by an unilateral cortical adenoma and cortical hyperplasia on the contralateral side, 1 aldosteronism and pheochromocytomatic syndrome due to right cortical and medullary hyperplasia and a left cortical adenoma, 1 huge left nonfunctional cortical adenoma, and 1 pheochromocytomatic syndrome resulting from a cortical adenoma. The pathogenesis of the disease was discussed.
