Adrenocortical adenoma containing a fat component: CT and MR image evaluation

N Sato et al. Abdom Imaging. 1995 Sep-Oct.

Abstract

A case of adrenocortical adenoma containing small adipose foci is presented. A small amount of fat within the mass led to an erroneous preoperative diagnosis of myelolipoma. Adrenal adenoma should be included in the differential diagnosis of adrenal mass containing fat.
