Adrenal myelolipoma with osseous metaplasia and hypercortisolism

چکیده
Adrenal myelolipomas are rare adrenal tumors generally diagnosed incidentally. A 42-year-old female reported to us with complaints of left flank pain attributable to her left ureteric calculi. On evaluation, a large adrenal mass was diagnosed along with hypercortisolism. After adrenalectomy, the histopathology revealed adrenal myelolipoma along with osseous metaplasia not reported in English literature, to the best of our knowledge till date.

متن کاملA rare case of a multifocal extra-adrenal myelolipoma with markedly hypocellular bone marrow.
Extra-adrenal myelolipomas are rare, generally solitary, non-functioning tumors consisting of adipose tissue and hematopoetic elements. These lesions are not known to be associated with underlying hematologic disorders or documented bone marrow abnormalities. We describe the extremely rare occurrence of multifocal, extra-adrenal myelolipomas in a 35-yr-old male. A markedly hypocellular bone mar...
