Bilateral adrenal gland enlargement
The differential for bilaterally enlarged adrenal glands is relatively limited:
- adrenal hyperplasia
- adrenal metastases
- adrenal haemorrhage
- adrenal involvement with granulomatous diseases
- adrenal lymphoma
- primary pigmented nodular adrenal dysplasia (PPNAD): usually the glands are normal in size, but nodular. In older patients they may be enlarged 1
