Computed Tomography and Magnetic Resonance Images of Adrenocortical Oncocytoma Cases

چکیده
We present two cases of adrenocortical oncocytomas that were well-delineated on multi-detector computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging. The images showed a well-enhanced large mass with multiple stippled calcifications in a 10-yr-old girl who was consulted due to precocious puberty. A well-enhanced solid mass with necrotic components was incidentally noticed in a 54-yr-old man. These lesions were resected and diagnosed as adrenocortical oncocytomas through immunohistochemical studies and electron microscopy. Adrenocortical oncocytomas are rare disease entities, therefore, we report these interesting, rare adrenocortical oncocytomas here with radiologic findings, and discuss differential diagnosis.

Introduction: Nowadays, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in combination with computed-tomography (CT) is increasingly being used in radiation therapy planning. MR and CT images are applied to determine the target volume and calculate dose distribution, respectively. Since the use of these two imaging modalities causes registration uncertainty and increases department w...

متن کاملA Case of Myxoid Adrenocortical Neoplasm: Computed Tomography and Magnetic Resonance Imaging Characteristics
Myxoid adrenocortical neoplasms are rare; to our knowledge, only 56 cases have been reported in the literature. Therefore, distinguishing benign from malignant cases is challenging. Although the histopathological features of myxoid adrenocortical neoplasia have been amply demonstrated, their imaging characteristics are yet to be reported. We describe here these characteristics for such a neopla...
