title: [Hemorrhagic pseudocyst of the adrenal gland. Presentation of a case].
abstract: The Authors report a case of voluminous hemorrhagic pseudocyst of the left suprarenal gland. The anatomo-pathological classification of adrenal cysts is described, in particular with reference to the etiopathogenetic hypotheses regarding the formation of hemorrhagic pseudocysts. Lastly, the importance of using instrumental tests for a correct diagnosis is underlined and the surgical indications of accidentally discovered asymptomatic cysts are discussed.
