Abstract
Non functioning adrenal lesions include cortical adenoma, myelolipoma, cyst, ganglioneuroma, haemorrhage and metastasis.They do not secrete any hormones.They are also called as incidentalomas since most of the times ,they are discovered during imaging performed for unrelated reasons.Non functioning adrenal lesions less than 4cm with benign imaging characteristics are managed conservatively. Lesions greater than 4cm with suspicion of malignancy in imaging studies are treated surgically. Here we are reporting a rare case of adrenal pseudocyst , which was successfully managed by surgery.
