Adrenal cysts are rare and their diagnosis may pose problems. Symptomatic adrenal cysts should be operated, but small, asymptomatic, non-functional cysts with benign characteristics may be treated conservatively with regular follow-up by sonography or computed tomography and hormonal evaluation.
A high index of suspicion is mandatory to enable early recognition of this rare clinical disease. CT scan is the standard diagnostic tool to confirm diagnosis. Prolonged drainage and appropriate antibiotics are essential for the successful treatment of primary psoas abscesses.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
