title: [Adrenal gland myelolipoma: review of the bibliography regarding a case].
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  To describe an additional case of this rare disease entity, with special reference to its diagnosis and treatment, and to briefly review the literature.
  
  
  METHODS
  We report on an 82-year-old male with adrenal myelolipoma that had been incidentally discovered during evaluation for another condition. A left adrenalectomy was performed due to the large size of the tumor and in order to determine its benign or malignant nature.
  
  
  RESULTS
  The histopathological findings disclosed an andrenal myelolipoma.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  Adrenal myelolipoma is an uncommon tumor type. CT is the most effective diagnostic method. Surgery is advocated in symptomatic cases and in asymptomatic cases with a large tumor mass.
