Abstract
Introduction: Adrenal Angiomyolipoma is rare. Only four cases have been reported so far. These are commonly found in Kidney but extra renal sites are also mentioned. Angiomyolipoma arising in adrenal is very rare entity, usually asymptomatic, diagnosed incidentally on radiological investigation of abdomen for other conditions. Case Report: We report our experience with a 55yearold woman who presented with pain in loin and abdominal mass. A computerised tomography (CT) scan showed an adrenal mass. Exploratory laparotomy with adrenalectomy was performed and the histopathological features confirmed the diagnosis of Adrenal Angiomyolipoma. The patient recovered without any complications following surgery. Conclusion: Our review is a brief summary about the adrenal Angiomyolipoma and should be kept in mind while diagnosing a lump in abdomen. Surgery should be considered as the definitive management for larger mass as to avoid associated complications.
