A CT and MRI demonstrated a unilateral adrenal mass with multiple splenic lesions.</p><p>The patient underwent right adrenalectomy and splenectomy. Microscopic examination showed extramedullary hematopoiesis in the adrenal gland and spleen.</p><p>The diagnosis of extramedullary hematopoiesis must be considered in any patient with hematologic disorders and thoracic or abdominal mass.
