متن کاملA case of adrenal Cushing’s syndrome with bilateral adrenal masses
UNLABELLED A functional lesion in corticotrophin (ACTH)-independent Cushing's syndrome is difficult to distinguish from lesions of bilateral adrenal masses. Methods for distinguishing these lesions include adrenal venous sampling and (131)I-6β-iodomethyl-19-norcholesterol ((131)I-NP-59) scintigraphy. We present a case of a 29-year-old Han Chinese female patient with a history of hypercholestero...
متن کاملClinically inapparent bilateral adrenal masses due to histoplasmosis.
Detection of bilateral adrenal masses in any patient often presents a management dilemma. Despite extensive imaging, positron emission tomography (PET) scanning, and fine needle aspiration biopsy (FNAB), a definite diagnosis may not be reached. We report an unusual case of bilateral adrenal mass diagnosed as histoplasmosis postoperatively and managed successfully by laparoscopy. Focus is placed...
متن کاملPrimary Bilateral Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma of the Adrenal Gland Presenting as Incidental Adrenal Masses
Although lymphoma may occasionally involve the adrenal glands as part of a generalized disease process, primary adrenal lymphoma (PAL) is a rare disease. We present a case of a 62-year-old woman with a history of mild/moderate hereditary spherocytosis with a well-compensated baseline haemoglobin, who presented with rapidly progressive symptomatic anaemia. During the diagnostic workup, imaging r...
متن کاملLarge Bilateral Adrenal Leiomyomas Presenting as Calcified Adrenal Masses: A Rare Case Report
We report the case of a 55-year-old woman with bilateral, large, calcified adrenal tumors who was treated by laparoscopic adrenalectomy. The patient presented with upper abdominal discomfort for the past 5 years. Her imaging showed bilateral enlarged adrenal glands up to 10-cm size with punctate calcifications. Positron emission tomography scan demonstrated moderate fluorodeoxyglucose avidity i...
