Abstract

Adreno-cortical insufficiency in the context of an adrenal mass can be a challenging clinical problem. The two main possibilities are either a benign mass or a malignant pathology. We describe here a patient who was investigated for chronic adreno-cortical insufficiency and was found to have a left adrenal mass that was later confirmed histopathologically to be tuberculous in nature.
