Adrenal schwannomas are rare and uncommon causes of adrenal incidentaloma. The lack of specific clinical and imaging features makes the diagnosis of adrenal schwannomas difficult, requiring histopathological studies to establish a definitive diagnosis. In this report, we present the incidental finding and surgical management of an adrenal incidentaloma. A 61-year-old woman who was evaluated for chronic abdominal pain was found to have a left adrenal mass. Further studies showed a benign adrenal schwannoma. This case illustrates the challenge that represents to make the correct diagnosis of an adrenal mass according to its clinical and radiological features.
