Adrenal masses are amenable to ultrasonic examination. The ultrasonic characteristics of eight adrenal masses in 6 patients are described. In particular, an ultrasonic study of the natural history and progression of a large adrenal adenoma is reported. Adrenal masses on the right side may mimic right posterior liver masses on transverse scans alone. They may compress and displace the liver with expansion. Posterolateral impressions on the inferior vena cava occur. Differentiation from a superior pole renal mass is not always possible.
肾上腺肿块适合进行超声检查。本文描述了6例患者中8个肾上腺肿块的超声特征。特别报道了对一个大的肾上腺腺瘤自然病史及进展情况的超声研究。仅在横向扫描时，右侧肾上腺肿块可能会被误诊为肝右后叶肿块。它们可压迫并推移肝脏，使其扩张。下腔静脉可出现后外侧压迹。有时很难将其与肾上极肿块区分开来。
