Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma limited to the adrenal gland with adrenal insufficiency.
A 81-year-old man presented with bilateral adrenal masses found pathologically to be a large cell, non-follicular center, non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. His clinical course was remarkable for the lack of macroscopic extra-adrenal tumor and for adrenal insufficiency in response to stress and cosyntropin stimulation. This is believed to be the first reported case of a non-Hodgkin's lymphoma limited to the adrenal glands with associated adrenal insufficiency.
