Abstract
|
|
|
Cavernous hemangiomas are rarely found in the adrenal gland. Most of the tumors are nonfunctioning, and the patients present with no clinical symptoms. Although rare, the presence of adrenal hemangiomas should be kept in mind in the differential diagnoses of adrenal tumors. We report a case of an adrenal cavernous hemangioma that was removed by laparoscopic adrenalectomy in a 71-year-old female patient. The chief complaint was right flank pain. The patient was pathologically diagnosed as a having a cavernous hemangioma of the adrenal glands. (Korean J Urol 2008;49: 279-281)
