Updates to Article Attributes
Body
was changed:
The differential for bilaterally enlarged adrenal glands is relatively limited:
- adrenal hyperplasia
- adrenal metastases
- adrenal haemorrhage
-
adrenal involvement with granulomatous diseases
- adrenal histoplasmosis5,6
- adrenal lymphoma
- primary pigmented nodular adrenal dysplasia (PPNAD): usually the glands are normal in size, but nodular; in older patients they may be enlarged 1
- adrenal pheochromocytoma: especially when familial (e.g. in multiple endocrine neoplasia type II) 4
