Ahn A: Hyperaldosteronism in cats. Semin Vet Med Surg (Small Anim) 9:153, 1994. Review article describing the pathophysiology, diagnosis, and treatment of hyperaldosteronism in humans and cats.
Gilson SD, Withrow SJ, Wheeler SL, et al: Pheochromocytoma in 50 dogs. J Vet Intern Med 8:228, 1994. Description of the clinical, imaging, and pathologic features of 24 asymptomatic and 26 symptomatic dogs with pheochromocytoma.
Gross MD, Shapiro B: Clinical review 50: Clinically silent adrenal masses. J Clin Endocrinol Metabol 77:885, 1993. A review article discussing how to approach an incidentally discovered adrenal mass in human patients.
Kintzer PP, Peterson ME: Mitotane treatment of 32 dogs with cortisol-secreting adrenocortical neoplasms. J Am Vet Med Assoc 205:54, 1994. Mitotane, when administered at high dosages, is an effective and acceptable alternative to surgery in most dogs with cortisol-secreting adrenocortical tumors.
Pennick DG, Feldman EC, Nylan TG: Radiographic features of canine hyperadrenocorticism caused by autonomously functioning adrenocortical tumors: 23 cases (1978-1986). J Am Vet Med Assoc 192:1604,1988. Abdominal radiography can detect an adrenal mass in about half of the dogs with adrenal-dependent hyperadrenocorticism, but calcification does not distinguish between adenoma and adenocarcinoma.
Peterson ME, Birchard SJ, Mehlhaff CJ: Anesthetic and surgical management of endocrine disorders. Vet Clin North Am Small Anim Pract 14:911, 1984. Review describing the preoperative and postoperative management of dogs and cats undergoing adrenalectomy.
Reincke M, Nieke J, Krestin GP, et al: Preclinical Cushing's syndrome in adrenal "incidentalomas": Comparison with adrenal Cushing's syndrome. J Clin Endocrinol Metabol 75:826,1992. A series of 68 human patients showing that the incidence of pathologic secretion of Cortisol in asymptomatic patients with adrenal masses is more frequent than was previously assumed.
Rosenthal KL, Peterson ME: Evaluation of plasma androgen and estrogen concentrations in ferrets with hyperadrenocorticism. J Am Vet Med Assoc 209:1097,1996. Study that documents high concentrations of one or more of the following hormones (estradiol, 17-hydroxyprogesterone, and androstenedione) in 96% of affected ferrets with adrenal masses.
Voorhout G, Stolp R, Rijnberk A, et al: Assessment of survey radiography and comparison with x-ray computed tomography for detection of hyperfunctioning adrenocortical tumors in dogs. J Am Vet Med Assoc 196:1799, 1990. Computed tomography is more sensitive than radiography in detecting adrenal masses but often cannot differentiate between benign and malignant tumors.
Widmer WR, Guptill L: Imaging techniques for facilitating diagnosis of hyperadrenocorticism in dogs and cats. J Am Vet Med Assoc 206:1857, 1995. A good overview of the current status of techniques that can be used for adrenal gland imaging in dogs and cats.
