case_images: Patient was worked up for severe postoperative hypertension with a computed tomography (CT) scan which revealed a small right adrenal mass measured at 31 mm (Figure 1).
case_images: (A) More typical Zellballen's architecture with small tumor nests and very focal tumor cell spindling (Hematoxylin and eosin staining, 100 x). (B) Large tumor nests were also present (Hematoxylin and eosin staining, 100 x). (C) Chromogranine A immunostaining showing strong granular cytoplasmic positivity in the tumor cells (Chromogranine A staining, 200 x).
