Summary

Between September 2006 and September 2008, 35 patients (32 women and 3 men; mean age 49years with adrenal incidentaloma (AI) were prospectively evaluated at the Department of Endocrinology and General Surgery of Istanbul University, Istanbul Medical Faculty.

All patients with AI underwent physical examination, including waist circumference. Body mass Index (BMI) was calculated as weight (kg)/ height (m) squared. A BMI \> 30 was considered an index of obesity. A waist circumference \> 88 cm in women and \> 95 cm in men was considered the cutoff for visceral obesity in accordance to the Adult Treatment Panel III (ATP III) metabolic syndrome criteria. Systolic blood pressure (SBP) and diastolic blood pressure (DBP) were measured from the right brachial artery of the patients in a supine position after 10 minutes of rest by using a pneumatic sphygmomanometer by the same doctor.
