Primary adrenal lymphoma manifestating as adrenal incidentaloma.

Although involvement of the adrenals by malignant lymphoma is common, primary adrenal lymphoma is extremely rare. Herein, we report a case of a 59-year-old woman with bilateral adrenal glands enlargement found incidentally on abdominal imaging. Despite of the huge size of the tumor, her adrenal function was intact. Ultrasound-guided biopsy disclosed a picture of malignant lymphoma, diffuse large B cell type. The patient received bilateral adrenalectomy and adjuvant chemotherapy, but succumbed 6 months later. We suggest that, although rare, primary adrenal lymphoma should be considered as a possible cause of bilateral adrenal incidentalomas.
