Introduction: Cysts of the adrenal gland are rare and are usually discovered incidentally, typically presented with abdominal pain or palpable mass. There are four categories of adrenal gland cyst: epithelial, endothelial, parasitic and pseudocysts. We report the case of a 33-year-old woman who presented as a pain of the right hypochondrium and abdominal distention and was diagnosed with a large unilateral adrenal pseudocyst. Case presentation: A 33-year-old Moroccan woman followed for acute articular rheumatism for 3 years was admitted with left hypochondralgia and abdominal distention. Magnetic resonance imaging. (MRI) and abdominal computed tomography revealed a large left adrenal cyst mass measuring 19 cm. The patient underwent surgery, and the cyst was completely removed. Histological examination revealed an adrenal pseudocyst. Symptoms resolved after pseudocyst removal. Conclusion: Adrenal pseudocysts are uncommon. Symptoms are usually related to the size and local pressure effect of the cysts.
Le gliosarcome est une tumeur cérébrale très rare
représentant 1,8 à 8% de l’ensemble des tumeurs gliales.
Il est considéré par l’organisation mondiale de la
santé comme une variante de glioblastome. C’est une tumeur
à double composante gliale et sarcomateuse. Le tableau clinique est
polymorphe, les données de l’imagerie sont évocatrices,
la confirmation est histologique. Le traitement est essentiellement chirurgical.
Le pronostic est lié étroitement à la qualité
d’exérèse. Dans notre travail Nous rapportons deux
observations cliniques dont l’objectif est de faire le point sur les
particularités, essentiellement diagnostiques, thérapeutiques
ainsi que pronostiques de cette entité rare.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
