Area of Science:

  • Pathology
  • Oncology
  • Surgical Anatomy

Background:

  • Myelolipomas are benign tumors typically found in the adrenal glands.
  • Extraadrenal myelolipomas are rare, with varied reported locations.
  • Lymph node neoplasms encompass a wide differential diagnosis.

Observation:

  • A 70-year-old male patient presented with an unusual finding.
  • Imaging and subsequent analysis revealed a myelolipoma.
  • The tumor was located within a lymph node, a previously undescribed site.

Findings:

  • Histopathological examination confirmed the presence of mature adipose tissue and hematopoietic elements.
  • The tumor demonstrated features consistent with myelolipoma.
  • This represents the first documented instance of a myelolipoma within a lymph node.

Implications:

  • Expands the known anatomical distribution of myelolipomas.
  • Highlights the importance of considering rare differentials in lymph node pathology.
  • May prompt further investigation into the origins and behavior of extraadrenal myelolipomas.
