All patients with incidentally discovered adrenal masses.

How it Works

Biochemical Screening Repertoire (ESE/ENSAT)

1. Rule out Subclinical Cushing: 1mg Overnight Dexamethasone Suppression Test (DST). Administer 1mg PO at 11 PM, check serum cortisol at 8 AM.
2. Rule out Pheochromocytoma: Plasma free metanephrines or 24-hr urine fractionated metanephrines.
3. Rule out Primary Aldosteronism (ONLY if hypertensive and/or hypokalemic): Check Aldosterone-to-Renin Ratio (ARR).

Next Steps

Autonomous Cortisol Secretion (ACS)

Check basal ACTH to confirm adrenal origin (should be suppressed).
Assess for metabolic syndrome, osteoporosis, and hypertension.
If symptomatic or end-organ damage exists, refer for unilateral adrenalectomy.
If asymptomatic, optimize medical management of comorbidities and monitor.
