| Popis: |
Adrenocortical tumors are very rare, especially in their non secretory form. A 15 years old boy was hospitalized for evolutive fever since 6 weeks associated with asthenia and abdominal pain. Infections hematological, neurological and system diseases were eliminated. Abdominal ultrasonography reveal a poly-lobular mass adherent to the spleen and the posterior wall of the stomach. This is confirmed by fibroscopy and barium swallow. Abdominal scanner and scintigraphy did not give any new etiological argument. X Ray thorax is normal. Laparotomy reveals a retro-gastric mass adherent by its superior extremity to the spleen. A complete excision is done. The pathological examination shows all the histologic features of adrenocortical carcinoma. Its extension to the spleen grade this tumour with a height malignancy. No chemotherapy was undertaken, only a clinical, ultrasound and radiography observation with a follow up of 13 months. |
