Overview

Current ACC staging may not differentiate stage II from III survival; supports revised systems like ENSAT with prospective validation.

Structured PICO

Population

416 patients with adrenocortical carcinoma (ACC) diagnosed between 1986 and 2007 from the German ACC Registry, with detailed information on primary diagnosis and a minimum follow-up of 6 months.

Intervention

2004 International Union Against Cancer (UICC) staging classification

Outcome

Disease-specific survival (DSS)hard clinical

The 2004 UICC staging classification for adrenocortical carcinoma has significant limitations in prognostic accuracy, prompting the proposal of a revised classification (ENSAT).
