Synchronous tumors comprising of cortical as well as medullary differentiation are rare in the adrenal gland. Collision tumors comprise of two independent neoplasms arising from the cortex and the medulla without any histological admixture. Adrenal cortico-medullary mixed tumors are rare tumors comprising of adrenal cortical and chromaffin cells intermixed with each other. Ganglioneuroma is a rare benign tumor originating from the paravertebral sympathetic ganglia and is rarely seen in the adrenal medulla. The presence of a synchronous ganglioneuroma with an adrenal cortical adenoma in the ipsilateral adrenal gland is exceedingly rare. We report a collision tumor comprising of an adrenal cortical adenoma and a ganglioneuroma detected as an incidental finding in a pediatric patient who presented with hypertension and palpitations.
肾上腺中包含皮质和髓质分化的同步肿瘤很罕见。碰撞瘤由起源于皮质和髓质的两个独立肿瘤组成,没有任何组织学混合。肾上腺皮质 - 髓质混合瘤是罕见肿瘤,由肾上腺皮质细胞和嗜铬细胞相互混合组成。神经节细胞瘤是一种起源于椎旁交感神经节的罕见良性肿瘤,很少见于肾上腺髓质。同侧肾上腺中肾上腺皮质腺瘤与神经节细胞瘤同步存在极为罕见。我们报告一例碰撞瘤,由肾上腺皮质腺瘤和神经节细胞瘤组成,在一名因高血压和心悸就诊的儿科患者中偶然发现。
