Abstract
The Intravascular Large B-cell Lymphoma (IVLBCL) is a rare disease characterized by neoplastic proliferation of lymphoid cells within capillaries. We report a case of IVLBCL in a young female patient with bilateral involvement of the adrenal gland. Immunohistochemical examination confirmed IVLBCL. The relationship between endocrine organs and lymphoid cells is a hypothesis to explain the correlation observed between IVLBCL and the involvement of the adrenal gland. Moreover, the association between IVLBCL and the described symptomatology seems to reflect a pattern that may assist in a more effective diagnosis.

Summary
O linfoma B intravascular de grandes células (IVLBCL) é uma doença rara caracterizada pela proliferação neoplásica de células linfoides no interior de capilares. Relatamos um caso de IVLBCL em paciente jovem do sexo feminino com comprometimento bilateral da glândula suprarrenal. A afinidade entre órgãos endócrinos e células linfoides é uma hipótese levantada para explicar a correlação verificada entre o IVLBCL e o comprometimento da glândula suprarrenal.
