[Adrenal gland lymphangiomas. A case report].
Adrenal gland lymphangiomas are benign, non-functional, and uncommon tumors of lymphatic tissue and with a cyst component. The majority of these are asymptomatic and are discovered incidentally. We present the case of an adrenal gland lymphangioma in a 24-year-old female with a history of high blood pressure, headaches, and anxiety of nearly 2 years in whom a routine ultrasound exam revealed a cyst tumor of right adrenal gland confirmed by computer tomography (CT) scan. Surgery was performed and lymphangioma of adrenal gland was the pathologist's report. The patient's clinical symptoms disappeared.
