  • Title: [Adrenal gland masses and Addison's disease of tuberculous origin: apropos of 2 cases].
    Author: Arrieta FJ, Saavedra MP, Velazco C, Robledo A, Casado S, Arrieta Alvarez F, Herrera Pombo JL.
    Journal: Rev Clin Esp; 1989 Dec; 185(9):451-3. PubMed ID: 2560230.
    Abstract:
    Two cases of confirmed tuberculous Addison disease, with an increase in size of the adrenal glands are presented. One patient presented also a renal adenocarcinoma; this association is very rare given the small frequency of these diseases. Based on these two cases we emphasize the utility of puncture aspiration with a fine needle (PAFN), echography and TC Scan in the study of Addison disease.
