초록

간세포암은 부신을 포함하여 여러 장기에 전이를 일으킬 수 있다. 그러나, 간의 병변 없이 부신으로 전이된 간세포암의 예는 매우 드물다. 저자들은 부신의 종괴로 처음 발현한 전이성 간세포암의 전산화 단층촬영 (CT), 자기공명영상 소견을 보고하고자 한다. 간세포암의 전이로 인한 부신 종괴는 MRI에서 간세포암과 유사한 신호강도와 조영증강 양상을 보이고 있었다.

Metastases from hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) can be found in the multiple organs including adrenal gland. But adrenal metastasis of HCC without obvious hepatic lesion is very rare. We report CT and MR findings of a patient who presented with adrenal metastasis as the first clinical manifestation of HCC. Signal intensity and enhancement pattern of adrenal metastastic mass of HCC were similar to those of HCC on MRI.
