Cysts of the adrenal gland are rarely encountered in clinical practice. Presenting signs and symptoms are variable. We present a case of an active 46 year old white female with six months history of left flank pain who was found to have a large lymphangiomatous cyst of the left adrenal gland. Curative resection of the cyst and left adrenalectomy were performed with preservation of the left kidney. We include a review of the literature.
