Where are the adrenal glands? The adrenal glands are small glands that sit on top of the kidneys in the retroperitoneum (i.e. the deepest part of the abdomen). They are several centimeters in length and each weighs 4-6 grams.
The adrenal glands are two small structures that sit on top of the kidneys, deep in the back, behind the abdominal cavity and well beneath the back muscles.he adrenal glands are divided into an outside layer called the cortex and an inner layer called the medulla. Cells in the adrenal cortex make steroid hormones derived from cholesterol, including glucocorticoids (cortisol), mineralocorticoids (aldosterone) and androgrens. The medulla makes catecholamines (adrenaline).
