Recently, we received a patient from Sichuan who had been to Sichuan Huaxi Hospital, Guangzhou Southern Hospital and other major hospitals for headache and hypertension, and spent more than 20,000 yuan without finding out the real cause of the disease. The patient came to Shantou to look for his friends and relatives and visited our hospital. As he suspected that there was something wrong with the adrenal glands, he was given an ultrasound of both adrenal glands and found that there was a tumor of about 4 cm in size in the right adrenal gland.

The cause of the tumor was not found after the patient went to many major hospitals, but it was also related to the patient’s lack of common sense, in addition to the doctor’s reasons. The patient’s high blood pressure causes headache, so the patient has repeatedly run to the hospital brain, neurology, but not to the urology department, and adrenal adenoma caused by hypertension is precisely a urological disease, so, any unexplained hypertension, or headache and panic performance, it is best to check the ultrasound to understand the adrenal gland to rule out the possibility of adrenal adenoma, to avoid misdiagnosis.
