Abstract
We report the case of an 85 year old female patient who presented a mediastinal myelolipoma associated with hemorrhagic pleural effusion and anemia. Pathologic examination identified zones of acute and old intratumoral hemorrhage. The occurrence of a potential severe pleural complication has not been reported for this tumor, regarded as indolent. Such observation has practical relevance since it contrasts with the suggestion that these tumors may be followed without surgery.
