Introduction: Benign adrenal tumors are relatively common with occurrences of 3-7% of the population. Malignant adrenal tumors or adrenocortical carcinomas (ACC) are relatively rare but highly malignant and presents with extremely poor prognosis. Somatostatin (SST) is a widely distributed polypeptide that modulates endocrine and exocrine secretion, cell proliferation and apoptosis via five somatostatin receptors (SSTR1-5). Somatostatin’s inhibitory effects on tumor growth may be the result of it suppressing the synthesis and/or secretion of growth factors and growth-promoting hormones. Octreotide and SOM230 are multi-ligand SST analogues with high affinity for SSTRs. In human adrenal gland the expression of SSTRs was previously demonstrated...
