First CT scan showing A asymmetric enlargement of the right adrenal mass imprinting the liver and displacing caudally the normal gland; B detail of the right adrenal mass that displaces the surrounding structures. The kidney is displaced caudally and renal vessels are marked but without signs of infiltration; C A second CT scan revealing the dimensional increase of the adrenal masses. The right one incorporates all the surrounding vascular structures up to the left vascular bundle; D Maximum Intesity Projection (MIP) reconstruction shows that the right vessels near the adrenal mass are stretched but without signs of infiltration; E Three months after therapy CT scan revealed a complete remission of the right mass. The adrenal gland shows normal morphology with densification of the surrounding fatty tissue. The left adrenal mass is greatly reduced in size; F Eighteen months after diagnosis CT scan showed a complete remission of both the adrenal masses
