Case of congenital adrenocortical cancer

The article presents a unique clinical observation of adrenocortical cancer (ACC) in a newborn baby, whose mother suffered from a recurrent form of maxillary fibrosarcoma and had a burdened obstetric and gynecological history, but was not examined by a geneticist. Complications of ACC in the presented patient were secondary hypertrophic cardiomyopathy with obstruction of the exit paths of both ventricles, Itsenko– Cushing syndrome. Despite the surgical treatment carried out according to vital indications (tumoradinectomy on the right with hormonal support with a Solu-Cortef), the child died during the progression of multiple organ failure and sepsis.
