The answer is b. True: Cortical cancers, such as Adenocarcinoma, tend to invade the adrenal glands, IVC, and lymph nodes.

Explanation:

  • Cortical cancers, particularly adrenal cortical carcinomas, are known for their aggressive nature and potential to invade surrounding structures.
  • The adrenal glands are often directly involved due to their proximity.
  • The inferior vena cava (IVC) can be invaded by these tumors, especially when they grow large or are located near the IVC.
  • Lymph nodes are common sites for metastasis in many types of cancers, including adrenal cortical carcinomas, due to the spread of cancer cells through the lymphatic system.

Therefore, the statement is true.
