Adrenal Gland Disorders

Adrenal Gland Disorders

Adrenal gland disorders manifest when the production of adrenal hormones deviates from the norm, resulting in either excessive or insufficient concentrations.
Adrenal insufficiency, characterized by insufficient cortisol and aldosterone production, leads to conditions like Addison's disease. This disorder, affecting the adrenal cortex, exhibits symptoms such as skin bronzing, dehydration, low blood pressure, fatigue, and weight loss. Congenital adrenal hyperplasia, a genetic ailment causing...

Primary adrenal lymphoma (PAL) is a rare cancer. Diagnosis involves imaging and biopsy, with treatment best managed in specialized centers.

Area of Science:

Oncology
Endocrinology

Background:

Primary adrenal lymphoma (PAL) is an exceptionally rare malignancy, with limited reported cases globally.
Large B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma can manifest in the adrenal glands, presenting diagnostic challenges.

Observation:

This report details three cases of PAL in middle-aged adults, including two males and one female.
Patients presented with B-symptoms or adrenal insufficiency, particularly with bilateral adrenal masses.

Findings:

Diagnostic strategies included hormonal profiling and advanced imaging.
Biopsy is crucial for PAL diagnosis, especially after excluding pheochromocytoma.

Implications:

Bilateral adrenal masses pose diagnostic difficulties, necessitating a thorough etiological investigation.
