Abstract

Myelolipoma is a rare benign neoplasm consisting of mature adipose and haematopoietic tissues and usually found in the adrenal gland. However, myelolipoma can be rarely detected in extra-adrenal regions but often detected incidentally in imaging studies performed for other reasons or at autopsy. While adrenal myelolipomas are easily recognised given its typical imaging features, the diagnosis of extra-adrenal myelolipomas may be challenging. Herein, we aimed to present computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging findings of pelvic extra-adrenal myelolipoma in a 77-year-old woman with hepatocellular carcinoma and to describe the differential diagnoses.

Özet

Miyelolipom, olgun adipöz ve hematopoietik dokudan oluşan ve genellikle adrenal bezde bulunan nadir benign bir neoplazmdır. Bununla birlikte, miyelolipom adrenal dışı bölgelerde nadiren tespit edilebilir ve sıklıkla başka nedenlerle yapılan görüntülemelerde veya otopside tesadüfen tespit edilir. Adrenal miyelolipomlar, tipik görüntüleme özellikleri nedeniyle kolayca tanınırken, adrenal dışı miyelolipomların teşhisi zor olabilir. Burada hepatoselüler karsinom tanılı 77 yaşındaki bir kadında pelvik ekstra-adrenal miyelolipomun bilgisayarlı tomografi ve manyetik rezonans görüntüleme bulgularını göstermeyi ve ayırıcı tanıları tanımlamayı amaçladık
