Abstract

The paper reports two rare cases of adrenal myelolipoma which were referred to the authors' attention. This is a functionally inactive benign tumour made up of fatty tissue and foci of hemopoietic cells. It is often diagnosed due to the compression disorders caused to adjacent structures, whereas at other times it is identified by chance during the course of diagnostic tests carried out for other pathologies.
