[Adrenal myelolipoma. Case report].
Adrenal myelolipomas (a. M.) are rarely occurring, benign, unilateral, hormonally inactive, mostly asymptomatic tumors of the adrenal cortex, consisting of fat cells and myeloid tissue. The pathogenesis is not clear. There is no connection with hematologic diseases, but a strikingly frequent coincidence with chronic systemic diseases and obesity. Myelolipomas of the presacral as well as in the mediastinal space are very rare. Case report of an adrenal myelolipoma removed by lumbotomy.
