Adrenal hemangiomas are exceedingly rare benign tumors. Hemangiomas are commonly found in the skin and liver. When they arise in the adrenal gland, they are typically found incidentally on imaging, large size at presentation and are usually surgically resected in view of their large size and heterogeneous imaging appearance. We present a 66-year-old female who presented with right abdominal pain and weight loss and was found to have a large adrenal hematoma arising from a hemangioma.

Retroperitoneal teratomas are rare neoplasms in neonates, presenting with nonspecific symptoms and variable clinical features, making diagnosis challenging. Radiological investigations, particularly fetal ultrasound and contrast-enhanced computed tomography, play a critical role in their detection. Differential diagnoses include neuroblastoma, adrenal hemorrhage, and congenital cystic lesions, which share overlapping clinical and imaging features.

Objectives: Premature ovarian insufficiency (POI) affects 1 in 10,000 children, with its molecular causes largely unknown. Adult studies suggest that low androgen levels induce ovarian insufficiency, but data on about this in children is limited. This study aims to assess the prevalence of low androgen levels in childhood POI and its relationship with adrenal insufficiency.

The glucocorticoid receptor (GR) is critical in regulating cortisol production during stress. This makes it a key target for treating conditions associated with hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis dysregulation, such as mental disorders. This study explores novel ligands beyond mifepristone for their potential to modulate GR with improved efficacy and safety.
