In addition to surgery, local therapeutic measures can be valuable. Here, we present the case of a 33-year-old woman who developed left retroperitoneal local recurrent ACC with hepatic and pulmonary metastases 1 year after radical adrenalectomy. The tumors progressed under chemotherapy and mitotane treatments. She was treated with yttrium-90 selective internal radiation therapy (90Y SIRT) for hepatic metastases and cryoablation of the local recurrent tumor, after which significant tumor shrinkage was observed. She then received radiofrequency ablation for the residual hepatic metastases and radiotherapy to the residual local recurrent tumor. Complete remission was achieved and maintained at least until the data cutoff day (15.8 months after the last treatment). This is the first published report of cryoablation in a patient with ACC and the third report of 90Y SIRT use for hepatic metastasis of ACC. Cryoablation and 90Y SIRT are local treatment choices for ACC that are worthy of further study. |
