Adrenal cystic lymphangioma
Updates to Study Attributes
In the left adrenal gland, there’s an ovoid, well-circumscribed multilocular lesion (maximum diameters greater than 7 cm) with overall low-attenuation internal contents and nodular scattered peripheral calcifications. Multiple-phase CT images show non-enhancing contents and residual adrenal gland; within the lesion there are thin septations showing enhancement. There’s also a little FNH lesion located on the left hepatic lobe and horseshoe kidney. Left adrenalectomy was performed. Histopathological examination and immunohistochemical analysis of the cystic lesion was consistent with a lymphangioma.
