Abstract

The ability to produce secondary metastatic deposits at a distant site is the single most essential biological process that symbolizes a malignant tumor. Metastasis to adrenal glands is known to spread from the primaries of the lungs, breast, melanoma, Gatro Intestinal Tract (GIT), pancreas, and kidneys. Here, we report a case of an elderly woman presenting with features of metastasis to subcutaneous tissue, lungs, liver, lymph nodes, and bilateral adrenal gland with symptomatic adrenal insufficiency and primary being in left kidney-renal cell carcinoma-clear cell type. The presence of bilateral synchronous adrenal metastasis with symptomatic adrenal insufficiency with evidence of metastasis to subcutaneous tissue is catastrophic since it marks disseminated cancer.
奇异的双侧肾上腺转移:内部恶性肿瘤的罪魁祸首
在远处产生继发性转移沉积物的能力是象征恶性肿瘤最基本的生物过程。已知肾上腺转移瘤可从肺部、乳腺、黑色素瘤、胃肠道(GIT)、胰腺和肾脏等原发部位扩散。在此,我们报告了一例老年妇女的病例,她出现了皮下组织、肺、肝、淋巴结和双侧肾上腺转移的特征,伴有症状性肾上腺功能不全,原发于左肾-肾细胞癌-透明细胞型。双侧肾上腺同步转移,伴有症状性肾上腺功能不全,并有皮下组织转移的证据,这是灾难性的,因为这标志着癌症已经扩散。
