We report a case of adrenal myelolipoma with abdominal pain. Preoperative diagnosis was correctly made by computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging. We have reviewed the literature and discuss the contribution of modern imaging techniques to the diagnosis of this tumor.
Adrenal myelolipomas are rare benign tumors. Most of the cases are asymptomatic and discovered incidentally. We are reporting a case of myelolipoma involving right adrenal cortex of a 40-year-old woman who presented with abdominal pain. A short review of etiology, clinical features, and differential
Herniation of the liver through the anterior abdominal wall is a rare post-sternotomy complication. A 32-year-old woman had a 2-week wait referral due to abdominal pain, weight loss and upper abdominal swelling. She was known to have a left adrenal myelolipoma and had a mitral valve replacement 3
A 42-year-old male patient presented with intermittent abdominal pain and gastrointestinal discomfort present for 4 years. Work-up included ultrasound and computed tomography, which identified a fat-containing splenic mass 5.6 cm in size. Due to recurrent symptoms, the patient sought medical care
OBJECTIVE
We report a new case of symptomatic myelolipoma of the adrenal gland. We analyse clinical, diagnostic, histopathologic and therapeutic aspects.
RESULTS
Surgical excision was performed by lumbotomy. The patient was asymptomatic after surgery.
CONCLUSIONS
Adrenal myelolipoma is
Adrenal myelolipoma (MLS) is a rare, benign and non-functional neoplasm, composed of adipose tissue and myeloid. We report a rare case of adrenal myelolipoma of a 20-year-old female revealed with chronic abdominal pain. Computed tomography (CT) scan of the abdomen guided diagnosis and surgical
Extra-adrenal myelolipomas are rare; approximately 36 cases have been reported to date. We document a case of myelolipoma presenting as a localized mass in the renal sinus of a 66-year-old man. The chief clinical and radiologic differential diagnostic considerations in this case included a malignant
Presacral myelolipomas are rare, benign, asymptomatic tumors composed of mature adipose tissue and hematopoietic elements. Presacral myelolipomas can occur in patients with a medical history of malignancy, steroid use, and/or endocrine disorders including diabetes mellitus. A 65-year-old man with no
Myelolipoma is a rare tumor composed of fat and bone marrow components, most of which are located in the adrenal gland. Myelolipoma in the liver is extremely rare. To date, only 10 cases have been reported in the English-language medical literature. In one of these cases, the hepatic myelolipoma was
Adrenal lipomas are rare, non-functioning benign tumours, which are primarily detected during autopsy or imaging, as asymptomatic incidentalomas. Occasionally, they can present with abdominal pain due to their large size. Imaging studies help to determine the origin, volume, composition of the
A fifty-two years old male presenting with a history of abdominal pain of six months duration was found on investigation to have a large non-functioning adrenal mass. Adrenal myelolipoma was diagnosed preoperatively and surgical resection was carried out. Only a small number of cases of giant
A 50-year-old man had a giant myelolipoma of the right adrenal gland, 30 x 25 x 23 cm in size, and 3,500 g in weight. The mass was hyperechoic with low echoic areas in part on US, heterogeneous with fat density tissues and tissues with density higher than fat on enhanced CT, heterogeneous with fat
BACKGROUND
Extra-adrenal myelolipoma in the presacral area often raises a concern for liposarcoma because they have similar radiologic features.
UNASSIGNED
A 70-year-old woman with multiple abdominal surgeries in the past presented with persistent lower abdominal pain and anemia. A presacral mass,
Myelolipoma of the adrenal gland is a benign, endocrinologically inactive neoplasm composed of mature adipose tissue and a variable amount of hematopoietic elements. Rarely giant adrenal myelolipomas have been reported in literature and they are very unusual clinical entities. We describe a case in
OBJECTIVE
Adrenal myelolipoma is a rare benign tumor, well limited, variable in size, composed of fatty and hematopoietic tissues, the finding of which is usually incidental. If they reach a big size they may produce the feeling of abdominal mass, pain, neighbour organs compression and acute
