title: [Adrenal pseudocyst. One case report].
abstract: We report the case of a large left hypochondriac mass discovered incidentally in a 69 year old patient. Pathologic studies demonstrated it to be an adrenal pseudocyst which was vascular in nature. With the wider application of computed tomographic imaging, more adrenal masses will be detected incidentally. The size of the mass, results of many cyst puncture, biochemical assessment and age of patient may determine which patients should undergo surgery.
