Abstract
Oncocytomas of the adrenal gland are rare; only 9 cases are reported i n the world literature. We report 2 new cases in which benign adrenal masses were detected during evaluation for microhematuria or flank pai n. Subsequent to extirpation of the mass, pathologic examination estab lished the diagnosis of adrenocortical oncocytoma. (C) 1997, Elsevier Science Inc.
