A member asked:
Mri of my abdomen showed a mass on adrenal gland. what are the symptoms and what does this indicate?

Variable: Most adrenal masses are benign tumors called adenomas. These can be diagnosed with certainly if they have enough internal fat that the MRI can see it. If there isn't enough fat in the tumor for that diagnosis then primary tumors of the adrenal gland and metastases have to be considered. Sometimes needle biopsy is required to sort it out. Symptoms are variable..Too many factors.

See answer: Most masses on the adrenal gland are incidental and asymptomatic – usually benign adenomas. You should discuss with your dr. And radiologist for appropriate follow-up.
