We report a case of a 74-year-old female with myxoid adrenocortical adenoma which showed different magnetic resonance imaging findings compared to those of a typical adrenocortical adenoma. The myxoid change in the adrenocortical adenoma is a rare form of degeneration. It presents a considerable diagnostic challenge to both radiologists and clinicians because it can mimic other adrenal tumor types on imaging. The MRI findings of the presented case included a high signal intensity on T2-weighted images similar to that of fluid and delayed progressive enhancement.
我们报告了一例 74 岁女性的黏液样肾上腺皮质腺瘤病例,其磁共振成像表现与典型的肾上腺皮质腺瘤不同。黏液样变是肾上腺皮质腺瘤的一种罕见变性形式。它给放射科医生和临床医生都带来了相当大的诊断挑战,因为它在影像学上可以模拟其他肾上腺肿瘤类型。本例的 MRI 表现包括 T2 加权像上的高信号强度,类似于液体,以及延迟渐进性增强。
