Adrenal cavernous hemangioma is an extremely rare benign tumor. To date, less than 70 cases have been reported in the literature. In most of the cases, the tumor is hormonally silent, discovered incidentally and the diagnosis is made postoperatively. Pre-operative differentiation between this benign tumor and other malignant adrenal tumors is challenging. In this article we present a case of a non-functioning adrenal incidentaloma that was managed by laparoscopic adrenalectomy. The post-operative histological diagnosis was adrenal cavernous hemangioma.
肾上腺海绵状血管瘤是一种极其罕见的良性肿瘤。迄今为止，文献报道的病例不足70例。在大多数病例中，肿瘤无激素活性，多为偶然发现，诊断多在术后作出。术前鉴别这种良性肿瘤与其他肾上腺恶性肿瘤具有挑战性。在本文中，我们报告了一例通过腹腔镜肾上腺切除术治疗的无功能肾上腺偶发瘤病例。术后组织学诊断为肾上腺海绵状血管瘤。
