title: [Adrenal myelolipoma. Historical, etiopathogenetic, pathologic, clinical, epidemiologic and radiologic features. A case report].
abstract: Adrenal myelolipoma is a rare, benign, non-functional tumor composed of fat and brown erythropoietic marrow in varying proportions. It is a rare clinical entity. Usually asymptomatic, in the majority of cases it is found incidentally at autopsy. The authors discuss the historical, etiopathogenetic, anatomo-pathological, clinical-epidemiological and radiological features. They also describe a case of myelolipoma of the right adrenal gland come to their observation.
