Adrenal cysts are uncommon and usually asymptomatic, and therefore are usually incidentally discovered adrenal lesions. They have a broad pathohistological spectrum that includes pseudocysts and endothelial (vascular), parasitic, and epithelial (mesothelial) cysts.

Cystic adrenal lesions exhibit a broad histomorphological spectrum, ranging from pseudocysts, endothelial cysts, epithelial cysts and parasitic cysts. Here we present the case of a young woman with left-sided abdominal pain and contrast-enhanced CT showing a 10.4×7.7×7.8 cm fluid-filled left suprarenal lesion.

2024年6月19日 · Adrenal cysts are rare lesions that are usually found incidentally on imaging performed for other reasons. Adrenal cysts are reported to be rare with an incidence of <1% 1. Patients can present with pain or swelling, although a significant portion (~40%) are incidental findings 1,3. Functional adrenal cysts are very rare 7.

2023年4月24日 · Adrenal cysts are rare lesions representing approximately 1–2% of adrenal incidentalomas. The majority of these rare lesions are benign. Rarely, phaeochromocytomas and adrenal...

2024年12月15日 · Adrenal cysts are rare, fluid-filled sacs that involve the adrenal glands. The adrenal glands are located above the kidneys and are responsible for producing hormones such as cortisol and adrenaline. Most adrenal cysts are found incidentally during imaging tests performed for other reasons.

Adrenal cysts are usually unilateral lesions discovered incidentally during imaging procedures or surgery and at autopsy. Endothelial or lymphangiomatous cysts account for nearly 45% of these lesions and are usually small, measuring 0.1 to 1.5 cm in diameter.

The rubric of adrenal cysts comprises a broad differential diagnosis, rendering definitive diagnosis and subsequent management difficult. These cysts are categorized into four subtypes: endothelial, pseudocyst, epithelial, and parasitic. Endocrine …
