TESTAR DE ARMAS, Janet et al. Myelolipoma. Presentation of a case. Rev. Med. Electrón. [online]. 2014, vol.36, n.1, pp. 85-92. ISSN 1684-1824.

We present the case of a 44-years-old female patient who entered the Surgery Service of the Matanzas Military Hospital, Dr. Mario Muñoz Monroy, because of she was followed for a hepatic abscess of probably amoebic etiology. The complementary examination, abdominal ultrasound and abdominal contrasted tomography, showed a tumor of the right suprarenal gland, finally resulting a myelolipoma. The gland was successfully resected, and the histopathologic study confirmed a right suprarenal gland tumor, correspondent to a myelolipoma. The evolution of the patient was satisfactory. 

Keywords : suprarenal myelolipoma; adrenal benignant tumor.
