Adrenal glands hemangiomas are rare, benign and non-functional tumors. They are often discovered as incidentalomas either during imaging or autopsies. Nearly 70 cases were reported in the literature.
We report a case of a non-functional adrenal hemangioma (AH) that was incidentally found on abdominal ultra sonography (US) during the routine control of diabetes of a 58 year-old man. Imaging with US and Computed tomography (CT) showed an heterogeneous and partially calcified 6 cm tumor of the right adrenal gland. The mass was surgically excised and the histological examination concluded to an adrenal haemangioma.
Although rare, AH should be included in the differential diagnosis of the adrenal neoplasmas.
肾上腺血管瘤是罕见的良性无功能肿瘤。它们常在影像学检查或尸检时作为偶发瘤被发现。文献报道了近70例。
我们报告一例无功能肾上腺血管瘤病例，该病例是在一名58岁男性糖尿病常规检查时腹部超声偶然发现的。超声和计算机断层扫描（CT）成像显示右肾上腺有一个6厘米大小的异质性部分钙化肿瘤。该肿块经手术切除，组织学检查确诊为肾上腺血管瘤。
尽管肾上腺血管瘤罕见，但在肾上腺肿瘤的鉴别诊断中应予以考虑。
