Bilateral Primary Adrenal B-Cell Lymphoma Diagnosed by Workup for Primary Adrenal Deficiency.

Primary adrenal lymphoma (PAL) often occurs bilaterally and is a rare malignancy of old age. Workup for primary adrenal insufficiency often unmasks this underlying grave pathology. In this article, we present a case of a 73-yearold patient who presented with features of primary adrenal insufficiency and renal colic. Diagnostic abdominal imaging revealed bilateral suprarenal masses as the cause of adrenal gland destruction and the patient's symptoms. FDG PET-CT scan and histopathology confirmed the diagnosis of mature bilateral B-cell primary adrenal lymphomas. Though the patient showed an excellent initial response to the first four chemotherapy cycles, a relapse resulted in metastatic disease. This article highlights the PAL's disease course, imaging features, and management dilemma due to Chemotherapy's side effects and a higher recurrence rate.
