Özet
Introduction: Adrenal myelolipoma are rare occurring benign tumors. They are generally less than 5cm and may not cause symptoms. We discuss a case with adrenal myelolipoma in the light of literature. A 60 year-old female patient had strait flank pain radiate to inguinal region. In the right adrenal gland, a mass about 8 cm was specified by ultrasonography and computerized tomography imaging. In the hystopathological evaluation of the completely resected mass, it was determined that the mass was composed of mature adipose tissue and hematopoetic elements, and the tumor was described as adrenal myelolipoma. In the cases with masses localized in the adrenal gland, adrenal myelolipoma should be considered. Therapy procedure should be planned according to size of the tumor and the presence of symptoms.
