Adrenocortical carcinoma (ACC) is rare, with an incidence of 0.5–2 per million per year. ACC usually occurs in the fifth or sixth decade1 with a slight female predominance (sex ratio 1.5 : 1). Most cases are sporadic, but ACC has also been associated with some hereditary syndromes including multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1, Li–Fraumeni syndrome, Lynch syndrome, familial adenomatous polyposis, and Beckwith–Wiedemann syndrome.
