1/3. Bilateral cystic lymphangioma of the adrenal gland.We report the case of a 22-year-old woman with a large, bilateral lymphangiomatous cyst originating from the adrenal glands. Since she was having persistent pain and the diagnosis was uncertain, we did surgery.- - - - - - - - - - ranking = 1keywords = gland (Clic here for more details about this article) |
2/3. Bilateral adrenal cystic lymphangiomas in nevoid basal cell carcinoma (Gorlin-Goltz) syndrome: US, CT, and MR findings.We present a case of bilateral adrenal cystic lymphangioma in a patient with the Gorlin-Goltz syndrome. This case is unique as it is the first illustrated case (US, CT, and MR findings) of a cystic lymphangioma arising within the adrenal gland. In addition, the coexistence of cystic adrenal lymphangioma with the Gorlin-Goltz syndrome has not been described previously.- - - - - - - - - - ranking = 0.2keywords = gland (Clic here for more details about this article) |
3/3. Cystic lymphangioma of the right adrenal gland.Lymphangiomas are benign malformations of the vessels. They are commonly located in the neck, axillary region and mediastinum. lymphangioma of the adrenal gland is very rare. These lesions were first discovered as incidental autopsy findings. As the imaging techniques have improved, they now appear as incidental findings at abdominal ultrasonography and computed tomography scan examinations. They are usually asymptomatic. We present a 26-year-old woman admitted to the hospital, complaining of weakness, putting on weight, and lumbago. Her laboratory findings were within normal limits. Radiological examination revealed a 7 cm cystic lesion located in the right adrenal gland. Right adrenalectomy was performed. Histopathological examination and immunohistochemical analysis of the cystic lesion was consistent with a lymphangioma.- - - - - - - - - - ranking = 1.2keywords = gland (Clic here for more details about this article) |
