Abstract
Endocrine system originated lymphoma accounts 3% of all extra-nodal lymphoma cases and primary adrenal lymphoma (PAL) constitutes only 0.2% of them (1). In our literature research, there are nearly 250 cases published about PAL, until today. To the best of our knowledge, in addition to this extremely rare incidence of PAL, another accompanying primary malignancy has not been reported in the literature to date. Here, we present the first case of adrenal insufficiency, coexisting with bilateral PAL and follicular thyroid carcinoma.
