The majority of cases are detected incidentally. It presents a challenging preoperative diagnostic differential with other solid adrenal tumors. However, the assessment and management of AGNs are similar to other adrenal tumors. We present a case of a 40-year-old female referred to our institution for a right solid adrenal mass that was detected incidentally on an abdominal CT scan (4×5×5cm). The patient underwent laparoscopic surgical excision of the tumor. The histopathology examination showed areas of spindle cells and scattered mature ganglionic cells compatible with AGN. http://pubs.sciepub.com/js/8/1/4/js-8-1-4.pdf adrenal ganglioneuroma imaging features laparoscopy
