The most common presenting complaints included weakness (n = 12), respiratory signs (n = 4), blindness (n = 4) or gastrointestinal signs (n = 3). Laboratory abnormalities included hypokalemia (n = 18), alkalemia (n = 12), elevated creatine kinase (&gt;3000, n = 5) and azotemia (n = 4). In addition, hypertension was noted in 13 cats. Thirty cats were diagnosed with cortical tumors (17 carcinomas, 13 adenomas) and three cats were diagnosed with pheochromocytomas. Twenty-five cats underwent tests to evaluate the function of the adrenal tumors; 19\/25 cats had functional tumors (hyperaldosteronism [n = 16], hypercortisolemia [n = 1], high estradiol [n = 1], and hypersecretion of aldosterone, estradiol and progesterone [n = 1]). Twenty-six cats underwent adrenalectomy, one cat was medically managed and six were euthanized without treatment. Long-term survival postoperatively ranged from 4\u2013540 weeks, with 20 (77%) cats surviving the perioperative period of 2 weeks. The only variable that was found to be negatively associated with survival was female sex. The most common complications noted during the perioperative period were hemorrhage and progressive lethargy and anorexia.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions and relevance<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Surgical treatment for feline adrenal tumors (regardless of tumor type) resulted in good long-term survival. Given that pre- and postoperative hypocortisolemia was identified in this study, and, in addition, hypersecretion of more than one adrenal hormone occurred in one cat, adrenal panels prior to surgery may be beneficial as part of the preoperative work-up.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1177\/1098612x15572035","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2015,2,26]],"date-time":"2015-02-26T09:24:29Z","timestamp":1424942669000},"page":"77-84","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":57,"title":["Clinical findings, diagnostics and outcome in 33 cats with adrenal neoplasia (2002\u20132013)"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"18","author":[{"given":"Gideon","family":"Daniel","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Clinical Sciences, Tufts Cummings School of Veterinary Medicine, North Grafton, MA, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Orla M","family":"Mahony","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Clinical Sciences, Tufts Cummings School of Veterinary Medicine, North Grafton, MA, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Jessica E","family":"Markovich","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Clinical Sciences, Tufts Cummings School of Veterinary Medicine, North Grafton, MA, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Elizabeth","family":"Appleman","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Internal Medicine, Animal Medical Center, USA; VCA Fifth Avenue Veterinary Specialists, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Kelly N","family":"Monaghan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Medical Sciences, University of Wisconsin-Madison, Madison, WI, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Yuri A","family":"Lawrence","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Clinical Sciences, Oregon State University, Corvallis, OR, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"E Hathaway","family":"Fiocchi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"VCA Veterinary Referral and Emergency Center, Norwalk, CT, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Kelli","family":"Weaver","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Tampa Bay Veterinary Specialists, Largo, FL, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Andrea","family":"Johnston","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Clinical Sciences, Cornell University College of Veterinary Medicine Companion Animal Hospital, NY, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Bruce","family":"Barton","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Quantitative Health Sciences, University of Massachusetts, Worcester, MA, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2015,2,24]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_3_2_2_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/B978-1-4377-2362-5.00025-6"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_3_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jfms.2011.07.017"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_4_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/jvim.12186"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_5_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.domaniend.2004.06.010"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_6_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jfms.2004.08.007"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_7_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.5326\/0460036"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_8_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.2460\/javma.234.4.505"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_9_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jfms.2011.02.002"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_10_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.2460\/javma.1999.214.05.666"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_11_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.5326\/15473317-36-6-512"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_12_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1939-1676.2005.tb02708.x"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_13_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jfms.2009.07.010"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_14_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.2460\/javma.1990.197.01.104"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_15_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1939-1676.1993.tb03188.x"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_16_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.5326\/15473317-33-1-33"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_17_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1056\/NEJMcp065470"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_18_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.beem.2011.12.006"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_19_2","first-page":"5","article-title":"Aldosterone-producing adenoma and other surgically correctable forms of primary aldosteronism","volume":"19","author":"Amar L","year":"2010","unstructured":"Amar L, Plounin PF, Steichen O.
