  • Title: Tuberculosis of the adrenal glands: diagnosis by CT-guided fine needle biopsy.
    Author: Penne D, Oyen R, Demedts M, Baert AL.
    Journal: J Belge Radiol; 1993 Oct; 76(5):324-5. PubMed ID: 8119876.
    Abstract:
    Bilateral adrenal masses were found in a 64-year-old man with pulmonary tuberculosis and a pulmonary mass lesion suspicious for carcinoma. CT-guided fine needle biopsy of the left adrenal gland revealed tuberculosis. Adrenal metastases were thus excluded and probably Addison's disease, considered to be a potential complication of adrenal tuberculosis, could be prevented.
