Myelolipomas are uncommon benign tumors composed of mature adipose tissue mixed with hematopoietic elements; these tumors can occur in both the adrenal glands and extra-adrenal locations, the presacral region being the most frequent extra-adrenal site. We present a case of presacral myelolipoma diagnosed by fine needle aspiration (FNA) and core needle biopsy (CNB) in a 55-year-old woman with concurrent invasive ductal breast cancer. TC and RM imaging were consistent with the diagnosis of presacral myelolipoma. The lesion was discovered incidentally during the staging procedure for breast malignancy. The purpose of our work is to describe the FNA and CNB finding in combination with the imaging features of this uncommon lesion.
髓脂肪瘤是一种罕见的良性肿瘤，由成熟脂肪组织与造血成分混合而成；这些肿瘤可发生于肾上腺及肾上腺外部位，骶前区是最常见的肾上腺外部位。我们报告一例55岁并发浸润性导管乳腺癌的女性患者，经细针穿刺抽吸活检（FNA）和粗针穿刺活检（CNB）诊断为骶前髓脂肪瘤。TC和RM影像学检查结果与骶前髓脂肪瘤的诊断相符。该病变是在乳腺癌分期检查过程中偶然发现的。我们的目的是描述这种罕见病变的FNA和CNB检查结果以及影像学特征。
