Popis: Myelolipoma is a benign, rare, and hormone-inactive tumor of the adrenal gland. Its characteristic appearance on sonography and computed tomography enables preoperative diagnosis with a high degree of safety and accuracy. Symptomatic or large tumors have to be removed since there is a high risk of spontaneous hemorrhage. Common findings in patients with myelolipoma are reviewed, especially in those with surgically removed tumors.
