Adrenal leiomyomas are rare and often reported as Epstein-Barr virus (EBV)-associated smooth muscle tumor (SMT) in association with EBV infection in immunocompromised patients. We experienced a case of right adrenal leiomyoma that was incidentally found in a man in his 70s. Computed Tomography (CT) showed a well-circumscribed mass of 3.1 cm in diameter in the right adrenal gland, which increased to 4.9 cm in diameter over 1 year. Preoperative diagnosis was difficult due to the lack of specific imaging findings. He had a history of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) 8 years ago, and EBV had been detected in his blood. EBV-encoded small RNA(EBER) in situ hybridization (EBER-ISH) of the right adrenal leiomyoma was positive, and the final diagnosis was EBV-associated leiomyoma.
肾上腺平滑肌瘤很罕见,在免疫功能低下的患者中,常被报告为与爱泼斯坦-巴尔病毒(EBV)感染相关的平滑肌瘤(SMT)。我们遇到一例70多岁男性偶然发现的右肾上腺平滑肌瘤。计算机断层扫描(CT)显示右肾上腺有一个直径3.1厘米、边界清晰的肿块,1年内直径增大到4.9厘米。由于缺乏特异性影像学表现,术前诊断困难。他8年前有弥漫性大B细胞淋巴瘤(DLBCL)病史,血液中检测到EBV。右肾上腺平滑肌瘤的EBV编码小RNA(EBER)原位杂交(EBER-ISH)呈阳性,最终诊断为EBV相关平滑肌瘤。
