Huge adrenal schwannoma: a rare type of adrenal tumor, misconceived as adrenocortical carcinoma.

Schwannoma is a benign and uncommon neoplasm arising from the neural crest cells. The most common tumor sites are the skin and subcutaneous tissue of the head and neck. Retroperitoneal schwannomas account for 1-3% of all schwannomas and are predominantly female. In particular, adrenal schwannoma is very rare, and due to its large size at the time of diagnosis, adrenal schwannoma is frequently misdiagnosed as adrenocortical carcinoma or pheochromocytoma. Adrenal schwannoma is difficult to distinguish it from other adrenal diseases based on imaging findings alone. In this report, we introduce the case of a huge left adrenal schwannoma.
