MRI of adrenal lymphangioma: a case report

A 42-year-old female admitted with non-specific abdominal pain was evaluated with abdominal sonography which detected a multiloculated cystic lesion in the left perirenal area. Her clinical history was unremarkable. Laboratory examinations revealed no abnormality. The patient was further evaluated with abdominal MR imaging which demonstrated a multiloculated, multicystic lesion at the left adrenal gland with different internal viscosities (Figure 1A). The septations between the cysts showed contrast enhancement but no nodular area was detected at septations or at the wall (Figure 1B). The patient underwent an operation of transperitoneal laparascopic adrenalectomy. The histopathological evaluation of the tumor revealed the diagnosis of lymphangioma (Figure 2).
