Thank you for your question. Based on your CT scan, the adrenal lesion with 78% washout is most likely a benign adrenal adenoma, which usually does not require surgery. However, it's important to rule out any hormonal activity. I recommend getting some blood tests to check this:
Overnight dexamethasone suppression test (to rule out excess cortisol)
Plasma metanephrines (to rule out pheochromocytoma)
Aldosterone/renin ratio (if there's high blood pressure or low potassium)
Follow up with your doctor with the results. She needs to consult a proper endocrinologist
Kindly tell us full history, any episodes of: Palpitations, high BP, headache, sweating attacks, any bruising, or facial puffiness. History of fall, injury, or osteoporosis? Pain worsens with movement, rest, or at night? Any numbness, tingling, or weakness in legs? Any nausea, vomiting, change in bowel habits, jaundice? Any burning micturition, frequency, or hematuria? Kindly share recent HbA1c if available. After full history we may suggest further test to evaluate this problem.
Ct scan shows adrenal adenoma. It requires referral to endocrinologist required for proper further work up.
