Case report: Calcifying fibrous pseudotumour of the adrenal gland.
Calcifying fibrous pseudotumour is a distinct pathological entity usually occurring in the soft tissue of the extremities, trunk, axilla, pleura, mediastinum and peritoneum. This report describes the hitherto unreported occurrence of this tumour of the adrenal gland in a 10-year-old girl whose imaging findings closely resembled a neuroblastoma. This entity is a potential pitfall in diagnosing adrenal neuroblastoma.
