conclusions in evaluation of adrenal masses cystic lymphangioma should be considered as a differential diagnosis. introduction adrenal cystic lymphangioma is a rare benign tumor, which is nearly always asymptomatic and incidentally discovered during routine imaging work-ups or investigating other pathologies. case report a 43-year-old female presented hypertension, which during routine work-up ...

Objective: Detection and evaluation of adrenal glands are complex problems in conventional ultrasonography in dogs. Using three-dimensional (3D) ultrasonography (US) in adrenal gland volume evaluation can add new potential for further adrenal studies. Design: Descriptive study Animals: a total of 10 mix breed dogs Procedures: The dogs underwent two dimensional (2D) and 3D US of the adrenal g...

ninety six pairs of adrenal glands from lori – bakhtiari sheep and goat, aged 6 month to 1 year and 1 – 1.5 year from borujen abattoir were collected. after collecting the glands and weighting them, some parameters such as: length, wide and thickness of left and right side by caliper device were measured. in histological studies, after tissue preparation and staining with h&e;, cortical zones a...

conclusion adrenal iron in β-tm can be reliably measured in 3 tesla mri. the results highlight the absence of correlation between adrenal iron deposition both with serum ferritin and hepatic iron. results among patients, there was no significant correlation between plasma ferritin and adrenal t2*. significant difference was detected among t2* values of adrenals between the patient and control g...

spontaneous adrenal hematoma is a very rare condition and its prevalence has been reported to be about 1% in previous studies. although various causes have been proposed to explain its incidence in existing case reports, the etiology and pathology of this condition is still not known. the present study presents a case of spontaneous adrenal hematoma in a pregnant 31 year old woman without histo...

UNLABELLED 6-(18)F-Fluorodopamine ((18)F-FDA) PET is a highly sensitive tool for the localization of pheochromocytoma (PHEO). The aim of this study was to establish cutoff values for pathologic and physiologic adrenal gland tracer uptake. METHODS (18)F-FDA PET with CT coregistration was performed in 14 patients (10 men and 4 women; age [mean +/- SD], 42.9 +/- 13.3 y) with unilateral adrenal g...

To elucidate the relationship between steroidogenic hormones and developing adrenal glands, we investigated the immunolocalization of steroidogenic enzymes in equine fetal adrenal glands during mid-late gestation. Fetal adrenal glands were obtained from three horses at 217, 225 and 235 days of gestation. Steroidogenic enzymes were immunolocalized using polyclonal antisera raised against bovine ...

Recovery of adrenocortical function following treatment of tuberculous Addison's disease Sir, Penrice and Nussey report two cases of Addison's disease in which adrenocortical function recovered following treatment of tuberculosis.' Adrenal glands may be enlarged or atrophic in patients with Addison's disease due to t iberculosis. Large glands in tuberculosis mean a recent and probably active in...

Introduction: Psychological stresses influence brain functions such as learning and memory. Environmental factors like types and durations of stress affect brain responsiveness. This study investigated the effects of two subchronic social and isolation stresses on learning, memory, adrenal glands weight and corticosterone levels in the hippocampus and frontal cortex. Methods: Eighteen male ...

It is well known that hippocampal LTP is modulated by corticosteroids released from the adrenal glands, and the activity of adrenal glands, in turn, is influenced by hippocampal activity through the Hypothalamic-Pituitary-Adrenocortical (HPA) axis. In the present research, we studied the relationship between hippocampal plasticity and the weight of adrenal glands, an indicator for the accumulat...
