摘要
Leiomyomas are benign tumours of smooth muscle origin and can occur in any part of the body with adrenal gland being an uncommon site. Ganglioneuromas of adrenal gland are benign neural crest-derived tumours. Both of these tumours are usually detected incidentally. Hereby, the authors report an unusual case of a 31-year-old woman, who presented with paroxysmal attacks of headache, palpitations and flushing pointing towards a hormone secreting adrenal tumour. However, functional adrenal markers were normal. Radiological investigations revealed 8x3 cm heterogeneously enhancing left suprarenal mass with calcification and extension to left renal vein. Patient underwent left nephrectomy and adrenalectomy with a high clinical suspicion of malignancy because of tumour extension to the renal vein. The histopathological examination revealed a leiomyoma arising in a background of ganglioneuroma which was later on confirmed using immunohistochemistry. Authors have presented the present case because of atypical presentation as a hormone secreting adrenal tumour with radiological features of malignancy and the unique histomorphology of the combined occurrence of leiomyoma and ganglioneuromatous area in the adrenal gland. To the best of author's knowledge, this is the first case report of such an occurrence in the adrenal gland.
