Giant adrenal myelolipoma is an uncommon entity.

The tumor showed a drop in signal on the opposed-phase images, with no evidence of macroscopic fat contents, and demonstrated very high signal intensity on T2-weighted images. Giant adrenal myelolipoma should be considered in the differential diagnosis of tumors with the combination of the above MR imaging characteristics.
