left adrenal mass
The left adrenal gland presented a focal mass with phrenic vein invasion to the level of the vena cava; however, the vena cava did not appear to be invaded at this time. The left adrenal gland measured 1.42 x 0.92; however, an extended invasion of approximately 2.0 cm into the level of the vena cava at the phrenic vein was noted. There was no capsular escape noted.
This is strongly suggestive for pheochromocytoma or adenocarcinoma. LDDST and blood pressure measurements would be recommended with left adrenalectomy. There was no evidence of metastatic disease.
