Zusammenfassung: | Cystic lesions of adrenal gland are rare and usually asymptomatic in children. Cysts usually have been found incidentally by imaging studies during an investigation of other abdominal causes. Differential diagnosis of adrenal cysts from other cystic disease may not be possible by imaging studies.

In this case report, we will discuss the surgical approach of a case with adrenal cyst detected incidentally. Key Words: Adrenal cyst; retroperitoneal mass; benign tumor. |
