Your doctor will come up with a treatment plan based on your cancer and your overall health. Treatment includes: Surgery. This is the only option that may be able to cure you. Your doctor may remove one or both of your adrenal glands. If your disease has spread, he or she may also need to take out nearby lymph nodes -- small glands that are part of your immune system, your body's defense against germs. Radiation. This treatment can kill cancer cells or keep your tumor from growing. It's sometimes done after you've had surgery. Your doctor may beam radiation into your body through an outside machine, place radioactive seeds near the tumor, or insert a sealed radioactive capsule or wire into it.
