Abstract
- Adrenal myelolipoma is a rare, benign, and nonfunctioning tumor, which is generally small and asymptomatic and incidentally discovered at autopsy or on radiological examination. In rare cases, large tumors can produce symptoms due to their mass effect or spontaneous rupture with hemorrhage. We reported a case of a 36-year-old man who presented with retroperitoneal hemorrhage due to spontaneous rupture of a large adrenal myelolipoma discovered using multiple imaging modalities.
