Introduction. Adrenal myelolipoma is a rare tumor that is benign in nature, usually asymptomatic, unilateral, and nonsecreting. It is composed of variable mixture of mature adipose tissue and hematopoietic elements and develops within the adrenal gland. With the widespread use of cross-sectional imaging modalities such as ultrasonography and computed tomography, the incidental detection of thes...
PET Case: Incidental Lung Cancer This 80-year-old woman was being followed for a left adrenal mass found on an abdominal CT scan performed to evaluate abdominal pain (Fig. 1). A PET scan was ordered to further evaluate this lesion. The PET showed no abnormal uptake in the adrenal mass (Fig. 2), but an isolated focus of intense increased FDG uptake was noted in the upper lobe of the right lung (...
Extraadrenal abnormal uptake on adrenocortical scintigraphy has been reported rarely in the normal gallbladder, lipid cell tumor of the ovary, or in clear cell type renal cell carcinoma. Clear cell type renal cell carcinoma contains glycogen and cholesterol like the adrenal gland, but the uptake of the radionuclide I-131 cholesterol has been reported to be low and not sufficient to image it. Ri...
Cystic formation in association with adrenal neuroblastoma may be related to hemorrhage and necrosis of the tumor. We present an unusual case of congenital cystic fetal neuroblastoma of the right adrenal gland detected at 37 weeks' gestation which evolved into a complex echogenic mass 6 weeks after birth. Surgical exploration revealed a 3.5 x 3 x 3 cm right complex adrenal tumor which was resec...
A 40-year-old female, diagnosed as essential hypertension, demonstrated a 2 cm mass in left adrenal gland by computed tomography without abnormal endocrinological findings. (131)I-adosterol and (123)I-metaiodobenzylguanidine (MIBG) scintigraphy at 39 years of age showed no abnormal accumulation. Follow up (131)I-adosterol scintigraphy performed one year later showed apparently abnormal uptake a...
background: most preclinical studies are carried out on mice. for internal dose assessment of a mouse, specific absorbed fraction (saf) values play an important role. in most studies, saf values are estimated using older standard human organ compositions and values for limited source target pairs. objective: saf values for monoenergetic photons of energies 15, 50, 100, 500, 1000 and 4000 ke...
The information below regarding the use of imaging to characterize adrenal masses, will benefit practicing radiologists in both the academic and private practice settings. The decision as to how to manage an incidentally detected adrenal mass is one we face every day, and in order to recommend the most appropriate imaging test for characterization, we need to be familiar with the various imagin...
Serious bleeding from a ruptured adrenal mass limits preoperative diagnostics and can necessitate urgent laparotomy to control blood loss. A 45-year old man underwent an emergency laparotomy due to severe retroperitoneal haemorrhage causing hypovolaemia. Detailed retroperitoneal dissection after splenectomy and clamping of the abdominal aorta revealed bleeding from a ruptured haemangioma of the...
The case presented here illustrates a 75 year old female patient who underwent surgical resection of a right adrenal mass of uncertain nature. The final histological diagnosis was consistent with leiomyosarcoma arising from the adrenal anatomic site.PRIMARY LEIOMYOSARCOMA OF THE ADRENAL GLAND IS A VERY RARE MALIGNANT MESENCHYMAL NEOPLASM: to our knowledge, this is only the twelfth case reported...
Ganglioneuromas (GNs) are benign tumors resulting from neural crest tissue. GNs contain mature ganglion cells and Schwann cells. GNs most commonly occur in the retroperitoneum and posterior mediastinum. GNs rarely occur in the adrenal gland. A 45-year-old asymptomatic patient presented with an incidental finding of left renal mass. A 10 cm mass lesion located in the upper pole of the left kidne...
