Item A Rare Triplet Found in a Patient With Drug-Resistant Hypertension: Adnexal-Adrenal Sex Cord-Stromal Tumors and Castleman?s Disease(2022) Erbay, Gurcan; Pehlivan, Umur Anil; Karadeli, Elif; 36158343Adrenal and ovarian sex cord-stromal tumors which originate from the ovarian stroma and adrenal cortex, have an extremely low incidence even alone. Castleman's disease is also one of the rare causes of non-neoplastic lymphadenopathy. The aim of this case report was to contribute to the literature by identifying the coexistence of these three pathologies, which are encountered with a low incidence even alone.A 46-year-old female patient had experienced drug-resistant hypertension. In the laboratory test, electrolyte imbalance was detected. Imaging modalities revealed left adrenal and adnexal mass lesions as well as a right paraspinal intramuscular nodular lesion. When hypertension and electrolyte imbalance were evaluated together with their etiology, it was thought that the left adrenal lesion, which also has a chemical shift, may be compatible with functional adenoma. Left adrenalectomy was planned. The ovarian lesion and right paraspinal intramuscular lesion were also excised during the same session with the suspicion that the ovarian lesion may be hormone-active neoplasia and the intramuscular lesion may be a metastasis. The diagnosis of adnexal-adrenal sex cord-stromal tumors and unicentric Castleman's disease were made histopathologically.Radiologically, it should be kept in mind that the radiological manifestations of adrenal sex cord-stromal tumors can be confused with adrenal adenomas. Even when these extremely rare tumors are encountered, avoiding the "satisfaction of search" plays a crucial role in the identification of additional pathologies that can explain the etiology.Item MRI Findings of Borderline Retroperitoneal Serous Cystadenocarcinoma(2019) Erbay, Gurcan; Karadeli, Elif; Parlakgumus, Alper; 30823957Retroperitoneal serous cystadenocarcinoma is an extremely uncommon lesion. Here, we present MR imaging findings of a 40-year woman who was admitted to the hospital due to abdominal pain. The patient was evaluated with abdominal Computed Tomography (CT) and Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI). Abdominal CT revealed a 13x18 cm large retroperitoneal and cystic mass with polypoid projections. MRI was superior than CT in showing polypoid projections. Contrast enhanced MRI detected enhancement of thin septations and cyst appearance inner the cyst. Diffusion-weighted MRI showed restricted diffusion in the polypoid component with contrast enhancement. Therefore, we thought malignant lesion. The findings of contrast-enhanced CT and MRI were helpful in the diagnosis of those lesions. In addition, diffusion weighted MRI with multi parametric modalities played unlimited role in the assesment of the differential diagnosis.Item Bilateral renal leiomyoma with 5 year follow-up: Case report(2015) Goren, Mehmet Resit; Erbay, Gurcan; Ozer, Cevahir; Goren, Vinil; Bal, Nebil; 26664510Renal leiomyomas are exceptionally rare benign tumours of the kidney. Although the renal leiomyomas usually do not metastasize, the differential diagnosis between renal leiomyomas and malign lesions (leiomyosarcoma or renal cell carcinoma) cannot be done by radiological examinations, but is possible by histological examination. Surgery is the preferred treatment. After surgery, the prognosis is excellent without recurrence. Although uterine leiomyomas can be multicentric, renal leiomyomas have been single lesions. We report an incidentally detected case of bilateral renal leiomyoma in a 50-year-old woman with a 5-year follow-up. We also review the literature and discuss clinical, radiological and histological features of renal leiomyomas.
