Adrenal lipoma: A case report and literature review

The study reports a case of a 57-year-old female patient with incidental right adrenal lipoma (LA). The tumor was detected by ultrasound (US) and confirmed by computed tomography (CT). Due to the size of the mass, it was decided to perform a laparoscopic adrenalectomy. During the differential microscopic diagnosis, were considered adrenal lipomatous tumors, myelolipoma, angiomyolipoma and teratomas, among others. In all these neoplasms, LA is a rare tumor, with only 24 cases reported in the anglo-saxon literature revised. It is a benign adrenal gland tumor with generally asymptomatic and non-functioning nature.
