Diagnosis almost certain
Updates to Study Attributes
Findings
was changed:
A 3.5 cm left adrenal lesion which shows reduction in signal intensity between the in-phase and out of phase T1-weighted images. Normal right adrenal gland.
Updates to Case Attributes
Body
was changed:
The marked reduction in signal intensity between the in-phase and out of phase T1-weighted images indicates fatty content, and therefore a lipid-rich adenoma. For lipid-rich adenomas of the adrenal glands measuring under 4 cm in a patient with no underlying malignancy, no follow up imaging is required 1.
