Prenatal diagnosis of bilateral adrenal cysts.
We report a case of prenatally diagnosed bilateral adrenal cysts. Ultrasonographic diagnosis was made at 35 weeks of gestation and spontaneous resolution was observed by age 6 months. We review the characteristics of adrenal cysts, particularly hemorrhagic lesions, and recommend ultrasonography for followup.
