Para-adrenal schwannoma mimicking a giant adrenal lesion. [PDF]
BMJ Case Rep, 2021 A 57-year-old man was incidentally diagnosed with a 7 cm left-sided retroperitoneal mass. The mass was presumed to be arising from the left adrenal gland on a CT scan of the adrenal glands. Thus, a thorough workup ensued, looking into the possible functionality of the lesion. All investigations resulted in the negative.

Adrenal Schwannoma: A Rare but Important Consideration in Adrenal Tumors. [PDF]
CureusAdrenal schwannomas (AS) are rare and are often detected incidentally on imaging studies. Due to their nonspecific imaging characteristics and typically normal endocrine profiles, definitive diagnosis relies on histopathological examination. This case report presents a 72-year-old male patient with a 4.6 cm right adrenal mass, initially suspected to be
