ABSTRACT
Adrenal myelolipoma is a rare, benign, non-secreting tumour composed of adipose and haematopoietic tissue. One such rare case in a 32-year-old female who presented with'pain in right lumbar region is reported here. CT scan revealed a mass in the suparenal region measuring 5.6 x 5 cm. In view of the size and symptomatic nature of the mass, surgical resection was performed. Histological examination revealed the features of myelolipoma. The outcome was favourable without recurrence after a follow-up of one year.

Femoral hernia is not a common entity in males and bilateral cases are reported rarely in literatures. Here a case of bilateral femoral hernia which was misdiagnosed as a simple bilateral inguinal hernia in a young male patient is reported. The patient was managed successfully by conventional low approach of Lockwood in the same sitting. He recovered uneventfully and discharged on 5th postoperative day. Laparoscopic technique of repair of femoral hernia is evolving and may replace conventional methods
