Article Abstract
Bilateral congenital cystic adrenal neuroblastoma (NB) with cystic liver metastasis is a very rare condition and only few cases have been reported in the literature. Herein we report a case of a congenital bilateral cystic adrenal NB with cystic liver metastasis and briefly discuss characteristic imaging features of cystic NB.

Unlabelled: Newborn screening (NBS) represents an important public health measure for the early detection of specified disorders; such screening can prevent disability and death, not only from metabolic disorders but also from endocrine, hematologic, immune, and cardiac disorders. Screening for critical congenital conditions affecting newborns' health is a great challenge, especially in developing countries such as Morocco, where NBS program infrastructure is lacking. In addition, the consanguinity rate is high in Morocco.

Teratomas are germ cell tumors that arise from the derivatives of the three germ cell layers. They are categorized into subtypes by the extent of maturation, with mature teratomas being the most common subtype. While they can arise in various extragonadal regions, including the retroperitoneum, their occurrence in the retroperitoneal space is extremely rare.

Article Synopsis
- The increased use of imaging techniques has led to more frequent detection of incidental findings in the kidneys and adrenal glands, often referred to as incidentalomas, which are commonly encountered by general practitioners.* -
- This review provides guidelines for managing these renal and adrenal masses, highlighting that renal lesions are seen in about 14% of CT scans and should be assessed using the Bosniak classification for cystic lesions.* -
- For renal cell carcinomas larger than 4 cm or showing symptoms, active treatment is recommended, while adrenal lesions require functional testing, with specific screening tests indicated based on clinical signs such as hypertension.*
