An adrenal incidentaloma is an adrenal mass found in an imaging study performed for other reasons unrelated to adrenal disease and often accompanied by obesity, diabetes, or hypertension. The prevalence and incidence of adrenal incidentaloma increase with age and are also expected to rise due to the rapid development of imaging technology and frequent imaging studies. The Korean Endocrine Society is promoting an appropriate practice guideline to meet the rising incidence of adrenal incidentaloma, in cooperation with the Korean Adrenal Gland and Endocrine Hypertension Study Group. In this paper, we discuss important core issues in managing the patients with adrenal incidentaloma. After evaluating core proposition, we propose the most critical 20 recommendations from the initially organized 47 recommendations by Delphi technique.
肾上腺偶发瘤是在因与肾上腺疾病无关的其他原因而进行的影像学检查中发现的肾上腺肿块,常伴有肥胖、糖尿病或高血压。肾上腺偶发瘤的患病率和发病率随年龄增长而增加,并且由于成像技术的快速发展和频繁的影像学检查,预计也会上升。韩国内分泌学会正在与韩国肾上腺与内分泌高血压研究组合作,推广一项适当的实践指南,以应对肾上腺偶发瘤发病率的上升。在本文中,我们讨论了肾上腺偶发瘤患者管理中的重要核心问题。在评估核心命题后,我们通过德尔菲技术从最初整理的47条建议中提出了最关键的20条建议。
