“…Descriptions of renal cavernous hemangiomas on angiography have included a normal appearance [3], a hypovascular mass producing varying degrees of caliceal deformity [4], and a hypervascular mass with rapid arteriovenous shunting [5]. Three case reports all described the sonographic appearance of renal cavernous hemangioma as a hyperechoic lesion [2,6,7], in contrast to the hypoechoic lesion we found. No color or power Doppler sonography was used in the previously cited case reports.…”

“…No color or power Doppler sonography was used in the previously cited case reports. Although we found no description of the features of the renal cavernous hemangioma on CT angiography, we found its CT appearance described as a mass that is isodense relative to the renal cortex during the excretory phase [2], a homogeneously enhancing mass with peripheral hypoenhancement during the portal phase [6], and a solid lesion of 32 H before and 58 H after contrast injection [7].…”

“…[6] It rarely approaches to giant dimensions. [12,13] Microscopically, cavernous, and capillary type angiomas are seen more frequently. In recent years, a few case with rarely seen types of hemangiomas, for instance, anastomosing subtype of hemangiomas have been reported.…”

“…In cases with severe clinical symptoms, nephrectomy, heminephrectomy, papillectomy or arterial embolization can be performed. [12] In cases with macroscopic hematuria which considerably effects general health state of the patient or in cases where the possibility of renal carcinoma can not be excluded radical nephrectomy is indicated. In our cases since renal rupture, and subcapsular hematoma were seen, and renal carcinoma could not be rule out, radical nephrectomy was preferred as an appropriate treatment modality.…”

Spontaneous rupture of the kidney in the patients with synchronous renal hemangioma and nephrogenic hypertension

Most renal neoplasms in adults are epithelial in origin and mesenchymal tumors are rarely encountered. Vascular tumors and tumor-like lesions account for a very small subset. Hemangioma of the kidney is a rarely seen benign vascular neoplasm that probably arises from angioblastic cells. Its general sign is macroscopic hematuria with or without pain. Preoperative diagnosis is difficult or impossible. Previously, spontaneous rupture of the kidney caused by renal hemangioma was not reported in the English literature. In this study, two cases with a history of nephrogenic hypertension who presented with spontaneous renal rupture are presented. There wasn't any trauma history in the background of our patients. A long-standing nephrogenic hypertension was present in both patients. Patients underwent radical nephrectomy due to rupture of the renal tumor. In histopathological examination, capillary hemangioma was detected in the renal medulla in both cases. Patients didn't need antihypertensive therapy during the postoperative period.

“…About 200 cases have been reported in the literature since Virchow fi rst described it in 1867. 1 We present a case of cavernous hemangioma of the kidney which was unusual We diagnosed this tumor as a cystic renal cell carcinoma of the left kidney, cT1aN0M0, arising from the epithelium of a renal cyst. We performed a left partial nephrectomy.…”

A 69-year-old man was hospitalized for treatment of a left renal tumor. The tumor had originally been demonstrated as a simple renal cyst 4 years before. However, the size of the tumor decreased, and at the time of hospitalization, the tumor showed a solid, papillary component that was enhanced by contrast medium on computed tomography (CT) and had high signal intensity on T2-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). We diagnosed this tumor as a cystic renal cell carcinoma of the left kidney, cT1aN0M0, arising from the epithelium of a renal cyst, and performed a left partial nephrectomy. The pathological diagnosis was cavernous hemangioma of the left kidney. Generally, it is difficult to diagnose a cavernous hemangioma of the kidney preoperatively. This case is unusual because the configuration of this tumor changed within a few years. When we find a renal cyst with a solid component, renal cavernous hemangioma arising from the cyst wall should be considered in the differential diagnosis, and a conservative surgical approach should be considered.
