A Large Adrenal Pseudocyst Mimicking An Adrenal Cancer

Year 2017, Volume: 9 Issue: 1, 4 - 5, 01.04.2017

Abstract

Adrenal pseudocysts are rare lesions and usually discovered incidentally .They are usually benign and asymptomatic. There is reported potential malignant transformation of adrenal cysts and indicates radical excision of these masses. The differential diagnosis must consider cystic adrenal carcinoma. We report the case of a 58 year-old asymptomatic woman with a well-defined 17 cm lesion of adrenal gland with calcification and necrotic components. Preoperative computed tomography of the abdomen reveals suspicion of adrenal cancer.

Abstract

Adrenal pseudokistler genellikle insidental olarak tesbit edilen nadir lezyonlardır. Genellikle iyi huylu ve asemptomatiktirler. Adrenal kistlerin malign transformasyon potansiyelleri rapor edildiğinden bu kitlelerin radikal eksizyon endikasyonu vardır. Ayırıcı tanıda kistik adrenal karsinoma mutlaka düşünülmelidir. Bu yazımızda, iyi sınırlı fakat kalsifikasyon ve nekrotik içeriği bulunan, 17 cm’ lik bir adrenal kitlesi bulunan bir hastamızı sunmayı amaçladık. Operasyon öncesi tetkiklerde adrenal kanser şüphesi oldukça yüksekti.
