Adreno-Hepatic Fusion

ABSTRACT

We report a rare case of adreno-hepatic fusion in a 63-year-old man with a traumatic hepatic rupture. The adrenal tissue was located beneath the Glisson's capsule of the liver, and measured 3.5x2x0.3 cm. On histologic examination, the ectopic tissue was composed of both adrenal cortex and medulla surrounded by a delicate capsule of connective tissue.
