Adrenal myelolipoma simulating a retroperitoneal malignant neoplasm.

We describe a case of a large myelolipoma (15 by 12 cm. maximum diameter) that was removed surgically and resembled clinically and semeiologically a malignant retroperitoneal tumor. The patient also had chronic pancreatitis and cholelithiasis. Experimental findings, as well as the frequent association of myelolipomas (usually small) with several chronic diseases, suggests that the adrenal myelolipoma is not a true neoplasm but, rather, a choristoma or, perhaps even more likely, a hyperplastic and/or metaplastic lesion.

Case Report: epignathus-clinical, radiologic, and pathologic considerations.

In retrospect, a diagram could hace been made from the antenatal radiological examination of the case of epignathus presented here. The features of the epignathus are considered with respect to antenatal diagnosis and subsequent reparative surgery. Specific features such as axial organization, maturity of all tissues, and identical ossification points between host and parasite-all of which are evident in this case-favor the malformative origin of epignathi, thus distinguishing them from teratomata.
