Adrenal Abscess in a Chronic Hemodialysis Patient: A Case Report

Adrenal gland abscesses are rare lesions usually reported to be caused by fungal pathogens and typically through hematogenous spread from other primary sources of infection. Imaging has always been known to play a major role in the characterization of focal adrenal lesions. However, given the rare occurrence of abscesses in this location, making the right diagnosis remains challenging. We report the case of a 39-year-old man with chronic renal disease on hemodialysis presenting with signs of sepsis and left upper quadrant pain revealing a left adrenal gland abscess.
