[Ganglioneuroma of the adrenal gland associated with a contralateral renal carcinoma].
A case of ganglioneuroma of the adrenal gland associated with contralateral renal cell carcinoma is presented. Both the lesions underwent surgical therapy: of left adrenalectomy and right nephrectomy. The benign nature of the ganglioneuroma and the low staging (T2) of the renal neoplasm explain the positive exitus of the treatment: the patient is alive and free from disease after five years from the operation.
