Abstract :
Adrenal myelolipomas are rare benign tumors composed of mature adipose IA tissue and hematopoietic elements that wm resemble bone marrow. They most commonly occur in the adrenal gland, yet only comprise about 3% of all adrenal tumours. Although several hypotheses have been proposed as to the cause of myelolipoma, the causative process is still not clearly understood. The majority of myelolipomas are asymptomatic. It usually represents as accidental finding in imaging studies. There are some case reports about coincidence of adrenal giant myelolipoma with RBC disorders. In this case report, we present a p thalassemic 26 year old male patient who had giant adrenal myelolipoma
