Abstract:
:Seventeen children with adrenocortical neoplasms (13 carcinomas: four adenomas) are reviewed and attention is focused on the value of the newer imaging modalities in the management of these children. All the lesions were functioning tumors. CT is the single most important modality in assessing primary and metastatic disease at diagnosis and during follow-up. In children suspected of having an adrenal lesion, high resolution CT will promptly localize the lesion to an adrenal. Since the only curative treatment is complete surgical removal CT plays an important role in defining the extent of the primary lesion pre-operatively. Large carcinomas have an inhomogeneous density on CT and a complex echo pattern on ultrasound reflecting the areas of hemorrhage and necrosis seen macroscopically in these lesions. Smaller lesions have a more homogeneous density on CT but benign and malignant disease could not be differentiated by this modality. Ultrasound is useful in screening the adrenal area in those patients in whom there is a low clinical index of suspicion for an adrenal tumor and also in the post-operative period.
