History, clinical signs, and response to hormone therapy may

form the basis of a presumptive diagnosis in many cases.

Testing for elevations of all three sex hormones (estradiol,

androstenedione, and 17-hydroxyprogesterone) may provide

better sensitivity for identifying adrenal gland disease.

Abdominal ultrasound is useful for detecting enlarged

adrenal glands. The size, side of enlargement and

architecture can often be determined.

Enlarged adrenal glands may be detectable on palpation

Surgical treatment:

Perform a unilateral adrenalectomy if only one adrenal

gland is diseased. If both glands are diseased, a subtotal

adrenalectomy with total removal of one gland and

partial removal of the other is indicated.
