I have not noticed any difference between right or left sided in the
clinical signs the ferret presents with.  Medically it would make no
sense for that to be the case, as the hormones would be systemic no matter
which gland is affected.

pointed out that the degree of symptoms does NOT seem to necessarily
correlate to whether there are bilateral tumors or to tumor size,
either.]
