Prolife Cancer Centre: Adrenal Cancer Treatment in Pune
Adrenal tumors
Adrenal cancer is a condition that occurs when abnormal cells form in or travel to the adrenal glands. Your body has two adrenal glands, one located above each kidney. Adrenal cancer usually occurs in the outermost layer of the glands or the adrenal cortex. Dr. Sumit Shah provides the best Adrenal Cancer Treatment in Pune at Prolife Cancer Centre which is the Best cancer hospital in Pune.
A cancerous tumor of the adrenal gland is called an adrenal cortical carcinoma. A noncancerous tumor of the adrenal gland is called a benign adenoma.
If you have cancer in the adrenal glands, but it didn’t originate there, it’s not considered an adrenal cortical carcinoma. Cancers of the breast, stomach, kidney, skin, and lymphoma are most likely to spread to the adrenal glands.
