Abstract
It has been proposed by various authors that ectopic adrenal tissue can be identified in approximately 50% of newborns. However, most ectopic adrenal tissues become atrophic with age. These are usually asymptomatic. However in some cases endocrine symptoms and neoplastic transformations have also been reported. As a consequence, it has been suggested that ectopic adrenal tissues should be excised if incidentally encountered during surgery. We here report a case of incidentally detected ectopic adrenal rest located in ovarian hilum in a 44 years old female.
