Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The data on long term natural history of benign nonfunctioning adrenal tumors (NFATs) are lacking. The aim is to identify clinical characteristics associated with tumor growth and progression to mild autonomous cortisol excess over time.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

After being informed about the study, all patients with NFAT given written informed consent will underwent a control visit approximatly 10 years after initial visit at the outpateint clinic at the Department of Endocrinology, Diabetes and Metabolic Disease, University Medical Center Ljubljana, Ljubljana, Slovenia. The included patients will be divided in three groups regarding the BMI as follows: BMI \< 25 kg/m2, 25-30 kg/m2 and \> 30 kg/m2. The investigators will assess clinical, and laboratory parameters and CT findings at the follow up visit and compere them to baseline characteristics.
