We report eight cases of cystic lesions of the adrenal glands. Benign cysts or pseudocysts are the predominant tumors of the adrenal glands. However, neither tumor size, gross aspect, presence of calcified walls, color, cyst contents nor routine laboratory tests can exclude a malignant or hormone secreting lesion. We discuss the role of therapeutics, transparietal puncture and simple radiographic surveillance in the management of patients with cystic tumors of the adrenal glands. Surgery is often indicated or recommended.
我们报告了8例肾上腺囊性病变。良性囊肿或假性囊肿是肾上腺的主要肿瘤。然而，无论是肿瘤大小、大体外观、钙化壁的存在、颜色、囊肿内容物还是常规实验室检查，都无法排除恶性或激素分泌性病变。我们讨论了治疗、经皮穿刺和单纯影像学监测在肾上腺囊性肿瘤患者管理中的作用。手术通常是必要的或被推荐的。
