Heir Apparent: A Multi-Faceted Look at Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia
Adrenal Disorders And Adrenal Cancer Information
Though rare, affecting around 200 people per year, adrenal cancer is no less devastating when a family faces a diagnosis. Because it’s so rare, getting access to the right information and treatment is challenging. It’s not uncommon for a patient with this diagnosis to find that his or her doctor has never faced adrenal cancer before. For that reason, a trusted resource for accurate and timely information is critical to the modern endocrinology practice.
In addition, benign adrenal tumors, which affect one out of every 10 people who have an imaging test done of the adrenal gland, can have serious health effects. To help doctors and patients understand adrenal diseases, including tumors and cancers, Endocrine News has collected a number of recent and relevant articles on the topic on this page. For the information you need about adrenal disease, bookmark this page and refer to it on a regular basis.
Clinical Trials and Recent Research Studies
For doctors to make informed decisions for their patients about adrenal disorders, they need accurate information about the most recent research studies and clinical trials. Sometimes, accessing that information is not easy, especially for rare disorders and diseases. Endocrine News brings all of that research into one place, providing the data you need to make the right decisions for your practice and your patients.
Providing Hope for Adrenal Cancer Patients
For patients who have been diagnosed with adrenal cancer, this page will provide a measure of hope by offering insight into adrenal cancer treatments. Since only about 200 patients are diagnosed with this particular disease each year, endocrinologists are often unprepared to treat it. Here, however, doctors and patients can find information about what treatment options are available. Research about new, promising treatments will also be posted here as it comes available, providing hope to patients and doctors alike.
