Incidentally discovered adrenal nodule requires evaluation

The increased use of CT scans and MRI has led to more frequent discovery of nodules in the adrenal glands, known as adrenal incidentalomas. Most of these nodules are benign lesions, mainly adenomas, without significant hormone production. However, proper evaluation is necessary to distinguish benign lesions from those requiring further investigation, monitoring, or treatment. According to the guidelines of the European Society of Endocrinology and the European Network for the Study of Adrenal Tumors, the initial evaluation should consider two main aspects: the possibility of hormone production and the characteristics of the lesion.
