Outcomes of Patients With Isolated Adrenal Metastasis From Non-Small Cell Lung Carcinoma

Surgical resection of isolated adrenal metastasis from lung cancer provides a survival benefit in well-selected patients compared with nonoperative management. No patient with contralateral adrenal metastases or mediastinal nodal disease survived long term after adrenalectomy. The time interval between treatment of the primary lung cancer and adrenal metastasis was not significantly associated with survival, but the cohort size was small.
