Kidney stones are typically formed in the kidneys and urinary tract, not in the adrenal glands. The adrenal glands are responsible for producing hormones and are not involved in the formation of stones. However, certain conditions affecting the kidneys can also impact the adrenal glands indirectly. Therefore, while kidney stones cannot be found in the adrenal glands, issues related to kidney health can influence overall adrenal function.
