Abstract
The computed tomography appearance of adrenal hemorrhage secondary to adrenal vein
thrombosis is illustrated. The lesion appeared radiolucent, with a small focal calcification,
mimicking an adrenal adenoma. Hypercoagulopathy was an underlying factor in this patient
with myelofibrosis and chronic myelogenous leukemia.
