A case of recurrent, multifocal anastomosing haemangiomas

BMJ Case Rep. 2017 Jun 18:2017:bcr2017220076. doi: 10.1136/bcr-2017-220076.

Abstract

Anastomosing haemangiomas are relatively rare lesions, with a renal predilection, and which, given their imaging and pathologic appearance, mimic aggressive malignancies such as angiosarcoma. The imaging characteristics of this case are informative when evaluating a vascular lesion of the adrenal gland.

Keywords: Haemangioma; Radiology.
