Epithelioid angiomyolipoma mimicking adrenal cortical carcinoma: A diagnostic pitfall
Epithelioid angiomyolipoma (EAML) is a rare mesenchymal neoplasmic variant of angiomyolipoma characterized by aggressive growth and unpredictable outcome. Cases of local recurrence and distant metastasis have been described. The histopathological diagnosis may be difficult, as EAML often mimics other neoplasms. This is the case report of a 39-year-old male patient with EAML, which was initially...
متن کاملAdrenal cortical oncocytoma mimicking pheochromocytoma.
OBJECTIVE Adrenal tumors present with clinical features and signs unique to their specific hormonal hypersecretion. However, there have been cases in which the clinical expression has been in conflict with the histologic features of the tumor. In this communication we report an unusual clinical presentation of an adrenal cortical tumor with histologic features of an oncocytoma that clinically m...
متن کاملHepatic adrenal rest tumor mimicking hepatocellular carcinoma
Adrenal rest tumor in liver is a very rare tumor. It originates from an adrenal rest, which is derived from the aberrant adrenocortical tissue. Adrenal rest tumor is an ectopic collection of adrenocortical cells in extra-adrenal sites. This tumor may be hormonally active and manifest endocrine syndromes. But, most tumors are non-functioning and benign. Histologically, hepatic adrenal rest tumor...
متن کاملRenal Cell Carcinoma Mimicking Adrenal Tumor
There are a variety of causes of adrenal pseudotumors on computerized tomography (CT) scan, including upper-pole renal mass, gastric diverticulum, prominent splenic lobulation, pancreatic mass, hepatic mass, and periadrenal varices. We present a case of a large subhepatic mass that discrimination of its origin from neighborhood organs was difficult preoperatively. Our patient was a 58 years old...
متن کاملEndocrine/neuroendocrine glands: Adrenal cortical carcinoma
Note Adrenocortical carcinoma is a rare malignant neoplasm of adrenal glands, which most often presents without any hormonal symptoms. The most common clinical presentation of patients with hormone-secreting adrenocortical carcinoma is that of Cushing’s syndrome. Other hormonal hypersecretion syndromes associated with adrenocortical carcinoma include virilization (from androgen-producing tumors...
