title: Adrenal endothelial cyst with massive central calcification.
abstract: A 55-year-old woman was treated for a rare case of adrenal endothelial cyst that was detected incidentally during management of abdominal pain. Computed tomography of the tumor displayed massive central calcification and a fluid-fluid level by intracystic hemorrhage. Magnetic resonance imaging showed an intracystic papillary part with calcification. After surgery, the tumor was diagnosed as an angiomatous type of adrenal endothelial cyst.
