Abstract

Adrenal incidentalomas are masses that are discovered by imaging tests performed for other reasons. Today, in line with the increased use of imaging methods as computerized tomography and magnetic resonance imaging, the prevalence of diagnosis of adrenal incidentaloma has increased. The first stage that must be assessed after diagnosing adrenal incidentaloma is the examination of the mass in terms of hormonal status and malignancy. This evaluation is important for follow-up of the patients and for treatment planning.

Özet

Adrenal insidentalomalar başka nedenlerle yapılan görüntüleme testleri sırasında saptanan lezyonlardır. Günümüzde abdominal görüntüleme tekniklerinin yaygın olarak kullanılmaya başlanması ile birlikte adrenal insidentaloma tanısının sıklığı artmıştır. Adrenal insidentalomaların değerlendirilmesinde ilk basamak lezyonun hormonal olarak aktif olup olmadığı ya da kitlenin benign veya malign olup olmadığıdır. Bu değerlendirme tedavi planlanması ve hastanın takibi için önemlidir.
