Adrenal giant cystic pheochromocytoma treated by posterior retroperitoneoscopic adrenalectomy
INTRODUCTION Giant cystic pheochromocytoma (>10cm) is rare with only a few cases described in the literature. Preoperative diagnosis is very difficult because clinical, biochemical and radiologic finds are usually not consistent with a pheochromocytoma. Open surgery is traditionally the gold standard. CASE PRESENTATION A 51 year-old male patient resorted to surgery department with an adrenal ...
متن کاملGiant cystic leiomyoma of the uterus occupying the retroperitoneal space.
A 31-year-old nulliparous woman visited our hospital complaining of abdominal distension. Abdominal ultrasonography and computed tomography revealed a 40 × 40 × 30-cm, multilocular cystic mass extending from the upper abdomen to the pelvis. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) revealed a cystic tumor that was hypointense on T1-weighted images and was heterogeneously hyperintense on T2-weighted imag...
متن کاملGiant cystic pheochromocytoma.
A 53-year-old man presented with a 1-month history of pain and a palpable mass in the left side of the abdomen. Physical examination revealed a mass on the left half of the abdomen crossing the midline. Laboratory data were unremarkable, except for an upper limit of reference range for urinary cathecholamine metabolites. Computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging revealed a huge complex...
متن کاملNegative-ELISA using native and filtrated cystic fluid antigens to rule out cystic echinococcosis.
An increasing number of cases of echinococcosis in Thailand have been imported, probably native infections and medical transfers. Serodiagnosis is one diagnostic choice for interpreting infections before a further step is done. Due to limited antigen, indirect ELISA has been used as a negative screening test for IgG-detection to rule out echinococcosis. Native hydatid cystic fluid (HCF) antigen...
متن کاملA huge mediastinal space-occupying lesion.
Figure 1: (A) Transaxial T2-weighted image showing a clear structural relationship of the tumour and blood vessels. (B) Coronal T2-weighted image showing the tumour with heterogeneous signal intensity, and predominantly with high signal intensity. (C) Coronal-enhanced T1-weighted image showing a huge tumour: 21.5 × 8.4 × 9.8 cm, encompassing the left common carotid artery, pressing against the ...
