The tumor consist typical areas of adrenal carcinoma and sarcoma. Sarcomatous elements were identified and confirmed both immunohistochemically and ultrastructurally. After radical resection, the patient developed rapid local and distant metastatic recurrence and died three months after surgery. This is the first reported case of adrenal carcinosarcoma in korea.
