Overview
In 1893, Grawitz et al was the first one described ACC and falsely assumed it a hypernephroma. By 1938, the Mayo group had removed tumors successfully from 16 consecutive patients, most of whom had Cushing’s syndrome. In 1960, mitotane was first used clinically to treat inoperable or recurrent ACC.
Historical perspective
In 1811, an association of virilization and an adrenal tumor found at autopsy was first observed.[1]
In 1890, virilization was first documented following resection of an adrenal tumor.
In 1893, Grawitz et al was the first one described ACC and falsely assumed it a hypernephroma.
In 1934, Walters et al. described Cushing's syndrome in patients with adrenal tumors and emphasized that the characteristic findings were not exclusively related to the pituitary disease.[2]
In 1899, Knowsly Thornton of London was the first surgeon to successfully remove an adrenal cancer.
From 1905 to 1929, a number of patients were described with what was termed the adrenogenital syndrome and others with adrenal tumors with virilism.
By 1933, there was a clear evidence that the pituitary secretes an adrenocortical factor which was later recognized as ACTH.
By 1938, the Mayo group had removed tumors successfully from 16 consecutive patients, most of whom had Cushing’s syndrome.[3]
In 1949, cortical was discovered for the first time as a preparation.[4]
Between 1930 and 1949, nearly 300 patients with ACC were published.[5]
In 1949, the first patient with Cushing’s disease treated with preoperative cortisol.
By 1957, an intravenous preparation of cortisol, hydrocortisone, was used intraoperatively and in urgent situations of adrenal insufficiency.[6]
By 1955, Tait and Simpson in London and Reichstein in Basel had isolated and prepared aldosterone for clinical use as fludrocortisone.
In 1960, mitotane was first used clinically to treat inoperable or recurrent ACC.
