“…Myelolipoma is a rare benign tumor composed of nature adipose cells and a mixed proportion of myeloid and erythroid elements, usually occurring in the adrenal gland without endocrine function [2] , [3] . As reported in many studies [2] , [3] , [8] , EAMs have a woman predominance with the female to male ratio of 2:1, and are susceptible to the ages from 50 to 70 years. However, Cheng shen et al reported that EAMs mainly occurred in males between 50 and 70 years of age with the male to female ratio ranging from 2:1 to 1:1 [5] .…”
