We describe the case of a 46-year-old man with lung cancer and simultaneous solitary adrenal metastases. Adrenalectomy was performed 12 weeks after lung resection through a right subcostal laparotomy. Treatment was complemented with chemotherapy. Twelve months after adrenalectomy the patient was found free of signs of disease and was in satisfactory condition. The advantages of and indications for surgical resection of suprarenal metastasis are discussed in the light of published literature. In some cases, survival may improve with exeresis and chemotherapy.
我们描述了一名46岁患有肺癌并同时伴有孤立性肾上腺转移瘤的男性患者的病例。在肺切除术后12周，通过右肋下剖腹术进行了肾上腺切除术。治疗辅以化疗。肾上腺切除术后12个月，患者未出现疾病迹象，状况良好。根据已发表的文献，讨论了肾上腺转移瘤手术切除的优势和适应症。在某些情况下，手术切除和化疗可能会提高生存率。
