Abstract:
Ganglioneuroma of the adrenal medulla is a rare disease. It is characterized by its composition of mature ganglionic cells and nerve fibers in histology, benign tendency and incidental discovery. We report herein a case of adrenal ganglioneuroma associated with renal tuberculosis which was confirmed by surgical exploration and histopathologic examination.
