A In immunostaining for CYP11B1, a cortisol-producing enzyme, diffuse staining was observed in tumorous lesion. B In high-power field in CYP11B1 staining, cytoplasm was diffusely stained. C In immunostaining for CYP11B2, an aldosterone-producing enzyme, CYP11B2 expression was not observed in tumorous lesion. However, strong CYP11B2 expression was observed in adjacent adrenal cortex, indicating the presence of aldosterone-producing cell cluster
