| Popis: | Apart from neuroblastomas, adrenal tumors are rarely seen in children. The most common adrenal tumors are adrenocortical carcinoma and pheochromocytoma. Adrenocortical carcinoma is usually a large heterogeneous, well-marginated mass with solid/cystic areas and calcifications, with poor prognosis. Most of the pheochromocytomas are benign tumors and usually show intense contrast enhancement, the pattern of which may be diffuse, mottled, or peripheral on computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging. The purpose of this article is to evaluate primary nonneurogenic adrenal tumors. |
