مستخلص: The authors describe a case of myelolipoma, a relatively rare benign nonfunctioning tumor of the adrenal gland composed of mature adipose tissue interspersed with hematopoietic elements. Most myelolipomas are usually seen as an incidental finding at autopsy; however, very few symptomatic cases of myelolipoma are surgically resected. In this case of giant myelolipoma, an incidental finding of a stenotic growth in the transverse colon was also present. Histologically, the stenosing growth appeared as a well-differentiated adenocarcinoma. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
