A rare case of extramedullary hematopoiesis in adrenal mass

Extramedullary hematopoiesis (EMH) is a compensatory mechanism for deficient formation or function of red blood cells. Very rarely, extramedullary hematopoiesis is finding out in the kidneys as well as adrenals. We present a 50 year old man, who was admitted in the Urology Department with symptoms of renal colic. A contrast enhanced computed tomography (CT) of the abdomen and pelvis revealed right adrenal lesion of 80/79 mm in coronary size. The final diagnosis was myelolipoma of the right adrenal gland. We presented a rare case of adrenal tumor mass in patient without any haemotological disease that requires surgical excision.
