ODP059 Torn Between Two Adrenal Cancers: A Case Report

Abstract

Abstract The adrenals are affected by Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) in only 1 percent of cases. We report a rare case of NHL presenting as a large irregular mass at the adrenal gland in an elderly male. A 62-year-old male with hypertension and diabetes presented with 6-month history of vague right sided abdominal pain with recent extension to the left flank accompanied by body malaise and unintentional weight loss. Abdominal ultrasound revealed a 9-cm left suprarenal mass in addition to bilateral nephrolithiases and prostate enlargement. There was also left-sided minimal pleural effusion. CT scan and MRI contrast studies both confirmed a large left adrenal mass with infiltration of the spleen, pancreatic tail, and left kidney. High-Resolution CT scan of the chest confirmed left-sided pleural effusion with subsegmental atelectasis. Hormonal tests showed normal 24-hour urinary metanephrines, 24-hour urinary free cortisol, aldosterone-renin ratio, and serum DHEAS. Intact PTH and calcium were also normal. Multidisciplinary consultations involving endocrinology, medical oncology, hematology, pulmonology, surgical oncology, urology, thoracic cardiovascular surgery, anesthesiology, radiology, and pathology were done. He underwent exploratory laparotomy with resection of left adrenal mass and en bloc left nephrectomy, splenectomy and distal pancreatectomy. Histopathologic findings and immunostaining were consistent with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma. He completed R-CHOP chemotherapy and adjuvant radiotherapy with good clinical response and he has been on remission for two years. Presentation: No date and time listed
