Symptomatic adrenal pseudocyst.

Abstract

A case of symptomatic adrenal pseudocyst due to recurrent hemorrhage is presented. Because of the hemorrhages, the cyst-like lesion had unusual appearances at US, CT and MRI, resembling a malignant cystic tumor.

[Monstrous pseudocyst of the adrenal gland].

We report on a 64-year-old patient with a huge adrenal pseudocyst. These are rare cystic lesions of the adrenal gland with an unclear etiology. Recent studies suggest that the majority of adrenal pseudocysts are of vascular origin. All cystic masses in the epigastric region have to be considered in the differential diagnosis. The treatment of choice is surgical removal.

Differential diagnosis of neonatal adrenal haemorrhage and congenital neuroblastoma by colour coded Doppler sonography and power Doppler sonography.

UNLABELLED: The differentiation between neonatal neuroblastoma and adrenal haemorrhage may be very difficult in the individual case. We investigated eight neonates with adrenal haemorrhage and one patient with congenital neuroblastoma by colour coded Doppler sonography and power Doppler sonography. Six haemorrhages were cystic, whereas the neuroblastoma and four adrenal haemorrhages had a solid appearance. Colour coded Doppler sonography and power Doppler demonstrated vessels within the neuroblastoma. In none of the ten adrenal haemorrhages could flow be shown either with conventional colour coded Doppler sonography or power Doppler sonography. CONCLUSION: Conventional colour coded Doppler sonography and power Doppler sonography are useful to differentiate between neuroblastoma and adrenal haemorrhage.
