  • Title: MR demonstration of a cystic pheochromocytoma.
    Author: Belden CJ, Powers C, Ros PR.
    Journal: J Magn Reson Imaging; 1995; 5(6):778-80. PubMed ID: 8748502.
    Abstract:
    Cystic pheochromocytoma is a rare tumor of the adrenal gland that can pose a diagnostic challenge. We report a case of a 14-year-old boy who had an adrenal lesion that appeared cystic by both sonography and CT, but that demonstrated hemorrhage into the lesion at MR imaging, and proved to be a cystic pheochromocytoma. We emphasize the importance of considering the diagnosis of pheochromocytoma when faced with a cystic lesion of the adrenal gland.
