introduction adrenal myelolipoma is a rare benign neoplasm, which contains mature adipose tissue and variable amounts of haematopoietic elements. most lesions are small and asymptomatic, discovered incidentally during autopsy or imaging studies performed for other reasons. case presentation here we reported a series of two cases of giant myelolipomas of the adrenal gland; first one the largest ...

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...

introduction nonclassical congenital adrenal hyperplasia (cah) is characterized by sufficient cortisol and aldosterone production at the cost of androgen overproduction. hydrocortisone or dexamethasone in supraphysiological doses are current treatment; however, their downside is suppression of endogenous cortisol production resulting in corticosteroid dependency. we aimed to treat children with...

the adrenal gland of notopterus notopterus (pallas) consisted of interrenal and chromaffin cells, distributed around the main branches of posterior cardinal vein in most anterior part of the pronephric kidney. seasonal histological characteristics of the interrenal and chromaffin cells in relation to testicular activity of n. notopterus were studied by adopting different staining techniques. th...

in this study the clinical and epidemiological characteristics of congenital adrenal hyperplasia were evaluated prospectively in 47 patients admitted in imam reza hospital in mashhad during a 4 year period. 21-hydroxylase deficiency was present in 42 patients (89.3%), the simple virilizing form in 6 and the salt-losing form in 36 of them. 11b hydroxylase deficiency was present in 5 patients (10...

21-hydroxylase deficiency (21-OHD) caused congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) is a group of autosomal recessive genetic disorders resulting from mutations in genes involved with cortisol (CO) synthesis in the adrenal glands. Testicular adrenal rest tumors (TARTs) are rarely the presenting symptoms of CAH. Here, we describe a case of simple virilizing CAH with TARTs, in a 15-year-old boy. The p...

Adrenal insufficiency is characterized by decreased production of glucocorticoids from adrenal cortex, either due to a primary or secondary pituitary etiology. Neuropsychiatric symptoms and signs could be the first presenting only presentation are relatively less explored in patients with understood. Patients chronic psychiatric symptoms, namely depression anxiety should evaluated for associati...

El objetivo de este trabajo fue resaltar la importancia del diagnóstico causa síndrome Cushing, en un paciente canino macho, 12 años edad, con carcinoma cortical adrenal, que llega a consulta por presentar signos clínicos compatibles Síndrome Cushing. Los resultados estimulación ACTH sintética (Synacthen 0.25 mg®) arrojaron aumento el cortisol basal (10.8 µg/dl) y pos-estimulación (28.4 µg/dl)....

Adrenal Crisis is an acute deterioration of adrenal insufficiency. This condition leads to emergency condition. The major manifestation crisis hypotension and shock hypovolemic. Unspecified general would lead misdiagnosis suboptimal management this Comprehensive understanding, early diagnosis, prompt are important prevent morbidity mortality risks in children with crisis.
