N2 - Adrenal myelolipomas are rare, benign, asymptomatic, endocrinologically inactive tumors. Except when they become large enough to cause symptoms they are usually found by chance. Three cases of adrenal myelolipoma are described here, two of them operated on because of symptoms, and the third found incidentally in a patient undergoing nephrectomy for homolateral renal carcinoma.
