Our purpose is to present the ultrasonography (US), computed tomography (CT), and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) findings in a case of left adrenal adenoma with a coincidental RLRV and to discuss the clinical importance of their imaging. Abdominal and scrotal US, abdominal CT and MRI were performed for a 50-year-old male patient who was referred with continuous abdominal pain, intractable hypertension, high levels of blood cortisol and proteinuria. On US, a hypoechoic solid mass measuring<mml:math xmlns:mml=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/1998\/Math\/MathML\"><mml:mrow><mml:mn>4<\/mml:mn><mml:mo>\u00d7<\/mml:mo><mml:mn>3<\/mml:mn><\/mml:mrow><\/mml:math>\u2009cm in the left adrenal location and coincidental RLRV, besides multiple renal cysts, hepatomegaly, left-sided varicocele, and small-sized left testis were detected. CT and MRI also revealed the mass in the left adrenal gland which was consistent with adenoma. With CT and MRI, presence of RLRV was also verified.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1155\/2011\/867895","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2011,4,6]],"date-time":"2011-04-06T19:34:40Z","timestamp":1302118480000},"page":"1-3","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["Retroaortic Left Renal Vein in a Case of Left Adrenal Adenoma: Radiological Findings"],"prefix":"10.1155","volume":"2011","author":[{"given":"Alper","family":"Dilli","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Radiology, D\u0131\u015fkap\u0131 Y\u0131ld\u0131r\u0131m Beyaz\u0131t Training and Research Hospital, Ministry of Health, Irfan Bastug Street, Diskapi, Alt\u0131nda\u011f, 06110 Ankara, Turkey"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Umit Yasar","family":"Ayaz","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Radiology, Mersin Women's and Children's Hospital, Ministry of Health, Halkkent, 33240 Mersin, Turkey"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Osman Raif","family":"Karabacak","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Urology, D\u0131\u015fkap\u0131 Y\u0131ld\u0131r\u0131m Beyaz\u0131t Training and Research Hospital, Ministry of Health, Irfan Bastug Street, Diskapi, Alt\u0131nda\u011f, 06110 Ankara, Turkey"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Baki","family":"Hekimoglu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Radiology, D\u0131\u015fkap\u0131 Y\u0131ld\u0131r\u0131m Beyaz\u0131t Training and Research Hospital, Ministry of Health, Irfan Bastug Street, Diskapi, Alt\u0131nda\u011f, 06110 Ankara, Turkey"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"98","reference":[{"issue":"1","key":"1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"77","DOI":"10.1007\/BF01635058","volume":"21","year":"1999","journal-title":"Surgical and Radiologic Anatomy"},{"issue":"2","key":"2","first-page":"140","volume":"10","year":"2004","journal-title":"T\u00fcrk Tanisal ve Girisimsel Radyoloji Dergisi"},{"key":"3","first-page":"249","volume-title":"Adrenal incidentalomas","year":"2001"},{"issue":"3","key":"4","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"559","DOI":"10.2214\/ajr.179.3.1790559","volume":"179","year":"2002","journal-title":"American Journal of Roentgenology"},{"key":"5","year":"1995"},{"issue":"3","key":"6","first-page":"153","volume":"18","year":"1995","journal-title":"CardioVascular and Interventional Radiology"},{"issue":"6","key":"7","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"703","DOI":"10.1007\/s10016-001-0022-y","volume":"15","year":"2001","journal-title":"Annals of Vascular Surgery"},{"key":"8","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"84","DOI":"10.3339\/jkspn.2010.14.1.84","volume":"14","year":"2010","journal-title":"Journal of the Korean Society of Pediatric Nephrology"},{"key":"9","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1148\/radiol.2411050271"},{"issue":"5","key":"10","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"601","DOI":"10.7863\/jum.2007.26.5.601","volume":"26","year":"2007","journal-title":"Journal of Ultrasound in Medicine"},{"key":"11","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s00247-006-0145-y"}],"container-title":["Case Reports in Medicine"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"http:\/\/downloads.hindawi.com\/journals\/crim\/2011\/867895.pdf","content-type":"application\/pdf","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"http:\/\/downloads.hindawi.com\/journals\/crim\/2011\/867895.xml","content-type":"application\/xml","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"http:\/\/downloads.hindawi.com\/journals\/crim\/2011\/867895.pdf","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2017,6,19]],"date-time":"2017-06-19T22:07:31Z","timestamp":1497910051000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"http:\/\/www.hindawi.com\/journals\/crim\/2011\/867895\/"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2011]]},"references-count":11,"alternative-id":["867895","867895"],"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1155\/2011\/867895","relation":{},"ISSN":["1687-9627","1687-9635"],"issn-type":[{"value":"1687-9627","type":"print"},{"value":"1687-9635","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2011]]}}}
