We report a 45-year-old female with left adrenocortical carcinoma resulting in Cushing syndrome. She visited the 3rd Department of Internal Medicine, Kanazawa University Hospital with complaints of moon face, amenorrhea and hypertension. A diagnosis of left adrenal tumor with Cushing syndrome was made and she was transferred to our clinic. Left thoracoabdominal adrenalectomy was performed. The histologic report was compatible with adrenocortical carcinoma with no invasion into adjunctive tissues. She is now on endocrinologic study and is being administered 1,1-dichloro-2-[o-chlorophenyl]-2[p-chlorophenyl] ethane. There is no evidence of local recurrence or remote metastasis.
