Lymphangiomas are rare adrenal lesions, most of them asymptomatic. We report one case of adrenal lymphangioma in a 41-year-old female patient with elevated serum catecholamine levels. Lymphangiomas are multicystic lesions covered by endothelium and with serous content, the differential diagnosis of which is mainly established with hemangioma and adenomatoid tumor. Surgical treatment is indicated in big lesions and symptomatic cases, which are left asymptomatic after surgery.
