The Cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMR) demonstrated dilated cardiomyopathy, with a left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) of 17% with concentric left ventricular hypertrophy and a focal myocardial infarction. Extracardiac findings in CMR showed an incidental 3-cm right adrenal mass, and subsequent dedicated MRI with adrenal protocol showed features of a benign adenoma. Laboratory findings showed mixed Cushing's and hyperaldosteronism suggestive of a functional adrenal adenoma. The radical right adrenalectomy was performed, and pathology confirmed the diagnosis.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n
