An adrenal collision tumor is a rare entity. We present a rare combination of giant adrenal ganglioneuroma (GN) and myelolipoma. GN is a rare benign tumor of the adrenal medulla that originates from primitive neural crest cells, while myelolipoma is a benign tumor of the adrenal cortex comprising of mature adipose tissue and blood components.
