摘要：

Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) can metastasize to nearly every organ, yet rarely metastasizes to the adrenal glands despite their anatomical proximity. Adrenal metastases are typically incidental findings on medical imaging and are vastly clinically asymptomatic. The adrenal glands can maintain hormonal homeostasis if a tenth of total adrenal gland function is preserved. We present a patient with synchronous bilateral adrenal metastases from RCC with rapid and unexpected development of adrenal insufficiency (AI).
