A 42-year-old man patient presented with progressively increasing, occasionally painful lump in the left upper and central abdomen. Investigations revealed well-defined capsulated left adrenocortical carcinoma. Tumor was resected successfully along with left kidney. Tumor recurred in the abdominal surgical scar 1.5 years after surgery. We are reporting this case because of rarity of metastatic recurrence of an adrenocortical carcinoma in the abdominal surgical scar 1.5 years after resection of primary tumor.
一名42岁男性患者,左上腹及中腹部出现逐渐增大、偶尔疼痛的肿块。检查发现为边界清晰、有包膜的左肾上腺皮质癌。肿瘤与左肾一并成功切除。术后1.5年,肿瘤在腹部手术瘢痕处复发。我们报告此病例是因为原发性肿瘤切除术后1.5年,肾上腺皮质癌在腹部手术瘢痕处发生转移性复发的情况罕见。
