  • Title: Surgical management of adrenal cysts.
    Author: Lal TG, Kaulback KR, Bombonati A, Palazzo JP, Jeffrey RB, Weigel RJ.
    Journal: Am Surg; 2003 Sep; 69(9):812-4. PubMed ID: 14509334.
    Abstract:
    Adrenal cysts are rare and are often found incidentally during abdominal imaging for another reason. We describe two cases of adrenal cysts, one of which was found to be a cystic pheochromocytoma. Most cystic pheochromocytomas are not diagnosed by urinary screening studies, and the first indication of a pheochromocytoma may be hemodynamic instability during resection. We review the literature on adrenal cysts and make recommendations for the management of cystic adrenal masses.
