Adenomatoid tumor of supra-renal gland

Adenomatoid tumors of adrenal gland are rare, asymptomatic neoplasias, with benign behavior, and usually are diagnosed incidentally. We report a case of a voluminous adenomatoid tumor of left adrenal gland in a 42-year old man who sought evaluation because of renal colic due to left nephrolithiasis. During the investigation, a tumor localized in left adrenal gland was identified by ultrasonography (14.3 x 10.5 x 19.0). The patient underwent adrenalectomy and pyelolithotomy with histopathological and immunohistochemical diagnosis of adenomatoid tumor of adrenal gland, being the largest one described in the literature to the moment. The patient does not present any signs of recurring lesion after a 3-year follow-up.
