ABSTRACT
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To evaluate the diagnosis and treatment of adrenal incidentalomas.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>One hundred and twenty-six patients were analyzed, in which 98 patients underwent operation.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>Of all types of the adrenal incidentalomas, 52 (41.3%) of them were adenomas and they were the most often; 43 (34.1%) of them were hypersecretory adrenal tumors, most of them were pheochromocytomas and Conn adenomas; all nonhypersecretory adrenal adenomas were under 6 cm, and all adrenal carcinomas were above 6 cm.</p><p><b>CONCLUSIONS</b>It is important to search for hypersecretory adrenal tumors and to detect malignant adrenal tumors. To nonhypersecretory adrenal adenomas, the sizes of tumors are the most important indexes in determining weather the tumors are benign or malignant and weather the tumors need to be treated with operation or not.</p>
