Retroperitoneal schwannomas simulating adrenal tumors

Tumors in the area of the adrenal were detected by chance in two patients who underwent a regular physical check-up. On arteriography the tumors were found to be fed by the adrenal artery. The diagnosis was retroperitoneal schwannoma, but in both patients it was difficult to differentiate the schwan...

Zusammenfassung:	Tumors in the area of the adrenal were detected by chance in two patients who underwent a regular physical check-up. On arteriography the tumors were found to be fed by the adrenal artery. The diagnosis was retroperitoneal schwannoma, but in both patients it was difficult to differentiate the schwannoma from an adrenal tumor preoperatively.
