Abstract
Ectopic adrenal tissue is an uncommon entity in females. It is usually seen in male children, and the commonly involved sites are the kidney, retroperitoneum, spermatic cord, and paratesticular region. The ectopic adrenal gland in adults has been described in few studies only. Ectopic adrenal tissue was diagnosed as an incidental finding in histopathological examination of serous cystadenoma of the ovary. A 44-year-old female presented with a complaint of vague abdominal discomfort for the past few months. Ultrasound was suggestive of a left ovarian complex cystic lesion. The histopathological examination revealed serous cystadenoma with ectopic adrenal cell rest. Here, we present this case as it is a rare finding incidentally detected in a patient being operated on for a different pathology.
