Adrenocortical carcinoma mimicking pheochromocytoma in 123-I-mIBG scintigraphy

I-MIBG Scintigraphy in the Localization of Pheochromocytoma and Paraganglioma

Cardiac 123 I - MIBG scintigraphy – why , how and who ?

The cardiac sympathetic nervous system in health and disease Anatomically the heart, particularly the left ventricular (LV) myocardium, has dense sympathetic innervation. Postganglionic neurons originate in the thoracic, stellate and cervical ganglia of the sympathetic chain, and run alongside the coronary arteries from the base to the apex of the heart, innervating myocardium and blood vessels...

Adrenocortical Carcinoma Mimicking Pheochromocytoma: A case Report and Review of Literature

Adrenocortical carcinoma (ACC) is an uncommon malignancy originating from cortex of adrenal gland. The most common pitfall in diagnosis of ACC is to distinguish it from pheochromocytoma. Here we report a 62-year-old hypertensive man with presentation of dyspnea. The laboratory data showed an increase in urine cortisol and renin with a mild increase in aldosterone, but decrease in adrenocorticot...
