Abstrakt: |
The paper reports a case of non-Hodgkin's primary lymphoma of the adrenal gland which is justified by the rarity of this pathology as can be seen from the literature. Following adrenalectomy and subsequent polychemotherapy, a complete remission of the disease was obtained. The Authors report that, in the absence of particular symptoms, diagnosis is generally based on X-ray examinations performed to clarify the causes of aspecific symptoms such as, for example, fever and asthenia. Lastly, it is underlined that the disease may be diagnosed during surgery when CT reveals the presence of an adrenal mass with a diameter of more than 3 centimetres. |
