“…It is noted that 7% of all pseudocysts are malignant or potentially malignant and this risk increases with size, especially when it exceeds 6 cm. 3,5 Most pseudocysts are asymptomatic, but in the case of a large pseudocyst the symptoms are due to the compression of the adjacent organs. 2,5 Thus, the three most frequent clinical manifestations are: abdominal pain, gastrointestinal symptoms (nausea and vomiting) and palpable mass.…”

“…[1][2][3][4] They can shift from malignant cystic tumors to pseudoscystics that represent 38 to 80% of all the adrenal cystic. 3,5 Moreover, there are only 130 pseudocysts that have been reported in literature so far. 1 We report a patient's case followed up for "adrenal incidentalomas", operated because of the tumor's size and the radiological suspicion of the malignancy.…”

“…Commonly the pseudocysts are presented to the surgeon if they are voluminous more than 5cm, in case of mass effect on the adjacents organs, if suspicious of malignant tumor and in case of hormonal secretion. 1,4,5 When surgery is proposed, laparoscopy is preferred to laparotomy regardless of the size of the tumor. 3 Surgery may not be necessary if the lesions are labeled as small benign cystic lesions (<4cm), and the patient can benefit from simple monitoring, which will be done by CT every 3months for a period of 18months.…”

BackgroundAdrenal pseudocysts are exceptional, usually discovered fortuitously. The interest of this work resides in the particularity of this clinical case, because of its rarity, and the diagnostic difficulty that it posed. Moreover, the absence of specific clinical, biological and radiological signs of this adrenal pseudocyst entity which does not represent a usual tumor of the adrenal gland. So, through this case, the epidemiological, diagnostic and therapeutic aspects will be described.Case presentation: Patient of 59 years old, with prior history of high blood pressure well controlled on monotherapy, reports since a year a pain in the right upper abdomen without any other associated signs. The physical examine is normal. Ultrasound and CT done revealed an adrenal mass refouling back closes organs, which was in favor of a malignant tumor of the adrenal gland. Biological examinations did not show any anomalies. The patient underwent an adrenalectomy without any complication. The histopathological analysis reveled the diagnosis of adrenalpseudocyst. Conclusion:As showed without patient, clinical, biological and radiological signs of adrenalpseudocyst are not specific. Only histological examination can confirm the diagnosis and rule out malignancy.

Giant adrenal cysts represent rare clinical entities that are usually discovered incidentally. Here, we describe a patient who presented with nonspecific upper abdominal left pain. Imaging studies revealed a huge left adrenal cyst. Routine laboratory tests and endocrine function tests were all normal. The patient underwent surgery, and the cyst was completely removed with total adrenalectomy. Histological examination revealed a benign epithelial adrenal cyst.The postoperative course was uneventful and the patient had no evidence of recurrence during a 3-year follow-up. We discuss the diagnosis and management of adrenal cysts.
