Adrenocortical carcinoma is a rare malignancy and even rarer in infancy. Most of these tumors in the pediatric age group are hormonally active and predominantly present with virilization. We report a case of a 1-year-3-month-old female child presenting with virilization. She presented with hypertension, hypertrichosis, clitoromegaly (virilization), and elevation of plasma testosterone and dehydroepiandrosterone. A discussion of this case and a review of the literature on this entity are presented.
