Anastomosing hemangioma simulating renal cell carcinoma
نویسندگان
چکیده
The anastomosing hemangioma is a recent described rare variant, which histologically simulates an angiosarcoma and occurs primarily in the genitourinary tract. We present a case of renal anastomosing hemangioma from a radiologic perspective, describing its imaging features and reviewing its presentation and management.

Background: Renal anastomosing hemangioma (RAH) is an extremely rare benign vascular tumor first described in 2009. Making this diagnosis is fraught with challenges. Radiologically they share features consistent with renal cell carcinomas (RCCs). Their vascular nature poses risks if considering preoperative biopsy and histologically they share characteristics akin to angiosarcomas. The few repo...
