Zusammenfassung: | Adrenal tumors are very rare. These lesions are called adrenal incidentalomas because they are incidentally detected through imaging procedure. Its prevalence ranges from 1.4% to 2.9% worldwide. Clinical suspicion, laboratory testing, Imaging and histopathological examination needed for definite diagnosis. We report three cases of adrenal tumors received at our institute between the year 2021 and 2022. Pheochromocytoma of Adrenal gland scaled score (PASS) tells about the prognosis based on histopathological findings. Earliest management is essential as these tumors are related with secretion of hormones and may have a poor prognosis. |
