Resumo: Introduction: Adrenal myelolipoma is a rare, benign adrenal tumor composed of adipose and haematopoietic tissues. Usually diagnosis is incidentally established during radiological examination for other pathologies. The great majority is asymptomatic and hormonally nonfunctioning. Objective: To relate a case of adrenal myelolipoma diagnosed incidentally during ultrasonografic evaluation. Method: Revision of medical records. Case report: A 56- year-old woman had the diagnosis of adrenal mass during investigation for abdominal pain by ultrasonography. Computerized tomography confirmed this finding and surgery was recommended for removal. Histology was positive for myelolipoma. Conclusion: Adrenal myelolipoma is an uncommon tumor, asymptomatic and diagnosed occasionally during imaging studies. This report illustrates such assertion and the need to include the myelolipoma in differential diagnosis of retroperitoneal and adrenal tumors.

O diagnóstico quase sempre é estabelecido de forma casual em explorações radiológicas realizadas por outras patologias, uma vez que clinicamente é assintomático e sem atividade hormonal. Objetivo: Relatar o caso de um mielolipoma de suprarenal diagnosticado incidentalmente durante exame ultrasonográfico. Método: Revisão de prontuário. Relato de caso: Paciente de 56 anos de idade, sexo feminino, durante investigação de dor abdominal através de ultra-sonografia teve diagnosticada a presença de massa na região supra-renal direita. A tomografia computadorizada confirmou este achado, sendo indicada cirurgia para ressecção da supra-renal. Estudo histológico foi compatível com mielolipoma. Conclusão: O mielolipoma de supra-renal é um tumor raro, geralmente assintomático e na maior parte dos casos descoberto acidentalmente durante exploração radiológica. O presente relato ilustra tal afirmação e sinaliza para a necessidade de sua inclusão no diagnóstico diferencial dos tumores de retroperitônio e de supra-renal.Faculdade de Medicina de Campos (FMC)2008-06-02info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://www.fmc.br/ojs/index.php/RCFMC/article/view/14610.29184/1980-7813.rcfmc.146.vol.3.n1.2008Scientific Journal of the Medical School of Campos; Vol. 3 No. 1 (2008); 08-12Revista Científica da Faculdade de Medicina de Campos; v. 3 n. 1 (2008); 08-121980-7813reponame:Revista Científica da Faculdade de Medicina de Camposinstname:Faculdade de Medicina de Campos (FMC)instacron:FMCporhttps://www.fmc.br/ojs/index.php/RCFMC/article/view/146/115Copyright (c) 2008 Revista Científica da Faculdade de Medicina de Camposinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessCunha, Otávio CostaFernandes, Constantino CamposMachado, Lutero M.Belitardo, Marcelo G.Azevedo, Marcelo N.Lourenço, Rogério B.Teixeira, João Paulo B.2017-08-31T17:55:29Zoai:ojs.www.fmc.br:article/146Revistahttps://www.fmc.br/ojs/index.php/RCFMC/PRIhttps://www.fmc.br/ojs/index.php/RCFMC/oai||revista@fmc.br1980-78131980-7813opendoar:2017-08-31T17:55:29Revista Científica da Faculdade de Medicina de Campos - Faculdade de Medicina de Campos (FMC)false
