A case of adrenal myelolipoma is reported in a patient in whom symptoms of hematuria and flank pain developed after the patient had sustained blunt trauma. Adrenal myelolipomas are usually found incidentally at autopsy. However, the symptomatic presentation of this patient was probably caused by traumatic intratumor hemorrhage. The etiology and pathogenesis of these tumors are discussed in relation to their occasional symptomatic presentation and to their differential diagnosis.
本文报告了一例肾上腺髓脂肪瘤患者,该患者在遭受钝性创伤后出现血尿和侧腹痛症状。肾上腺髓脂肪瘤通常在尸检时偶然发现。然而,该患者的症状表现可能是由肿瘤内创伤性出血引起的。本文结合这些肿瘤偶尔出现的症状表现及其鉴别诊断,对其病因和发病机制进行了讨论。
