ABSTRACT = {Adrenal–renal fusion is an anomaly misclassified as a renal 
tumor due to the absence of pathognomonic radiographic 
features. Herein, we report a case of a 61-year-old 
male who underwent a right radical nephrectomy for 
a presumed renal malignancy. Pathologic evaluation 
demonstrated a pheochromocytoma in the context of adrenal–renal fusion. Neoplastic transformation of fused 
adrenal tissue is rare but not unheard of and is typically 
adrenal cortical in origin. To our knowledge, this is the 
first description of a pheochromocytoma originating from 
an adrenal–renal fusion. The clinical presentation did not 
raise a high index of suspicion for the ultimate diagnosis 
rendered.},
