Giant adrenal myelolipoma and testicular interstitial cell tumor in a man with congenital 21-hydroxylase deficiency.

The occurrence of a giant myelolipoma of the adrenal gland reported in a patient with congenital adrenal hyperplasia (21-hydroxylase deficiency). Associated significant findings include a massive proliferation of adrenocortical cells as an integral part of the myelolipoma and coincidental tumor of the interstitial cells of the testis. The clinical, radiologic, endocrinologic, and pathologic features of this case are correlated with a review of the literature. The additional myelolipomas are also reported here for the first time. Similar lesions have been induced experimentally in rats and provide further evidence suggesting a hyperplastic rather than a neoplastic nature for this complex lesion, at least in its earlier stages.

Clear cell sarcoma with melanogenesis.

An example of clear cell sarcoma, from the great toe of a young woman having an otherwise classic history and appearance is described, and a malignant giant cell component is reported for the first time. Histochemical and electron microscopic studies clearly demonstrate melanogenesis. The controversy over tissue of origin of this uncommon neoplasm is discussed and evidence in support of neurectodermal derivation is presented.
