What is the treatment of adrenal cyst?
The adrenal cyst often does not require treatment. The rare condition, which is usually asymptomatic, usually occurs only randomly. These cysts can be examined to make sure they are not cancer or grow too fast, and after the doctor finds out that they do not cause any problems. Large cysts are often removed surgically, and cancer adrenal cyst will require extensive treatment that may include a number of different drugs and therapies.
In most patients, adrenal cyst treatment will be conservative. Cyst, which is small and does not cause any symptoms, cannot be monitored whether it has changed for a period of time. The initial image of the cyst can be compared with other paintings taken after six months or a year to see if the cyst is growing. If it does not grow, a small cyst that does not cause discomfort or hormonal problems is usually left alone.
Sometimes the adrenal cyst in the picture may look suspicious or can be shown by a number of images to grow at unusual speed. These cystsY, as well as the area around them, may be biopic to eliminate the presence of cancer growth. In some cases, cysts may form on the adrenal glands due to cancer in this gland or nearby kidneys. Biopsy is a simple outpatient procedure used to analyze cyst cells.
If cancer is found, a team of doctors will work with the patient to create a suitable treatment plan that may include chemotherapy, radiation and surgery. The first step in the treatment of cancer adrenal cysts is usually removal surgically if possible. Patients can then undergo various cancer treatment to help prevent the spread of cancer to other parts of the body.
In rare cases, the physician may remove the otherwise normal adrenal cyst to treat it. Cysts that are more largest than 2 inches (5.1 centimeters) are removed because their size can disrupt the adrenal function, although there are no noticeable symptoms yet. Cyst of any size that causesSymptoms can also be removed. If it is discovered randomly during surgery, a cyst that looks suspicious may also be completely removed to be biopsied.
