The adrenal (suprarenal) glands are paired endocrine organs that sit on the superior pole of each kidney in the retroperitoneal space (around the T12 vertebral level). The right gland is roughly triangular and lies posterior to the liver and lateral to the inferior vena cava; the left is more crescent-shaped and lies near the stomach, spleen and pancreas (superomedial to the left kidney). They are embedded in perirenal fat and enclosed by the renal (Gerota’s) fascia.
