Removing an adrenal gland. Open, complete (R0) removal is the only cure for adrenocortical carcinoma.
Laparoscopic adrenalectomy suits benign tumours and small metastases, but adrenocortical carcinoma requires open en-bloc resection because capsule rupture seeds the abdomen. Adjuvant mitotane follows in high-risk cases. Adrenal metastases from lung cancer are sometimes resected or treated with SBRT in oligometastatic disease.
