An isolated intravesical cavernous hemangioma of the bladder represents a rare occurrence, frequently posing challenges in distinguishing it from rhabdomyosarcoma. In this context, we present a case involving an 8-year-old male child diagnosed with a cavernous hemangioma of the bladder, which on MRI closely resembles the findings of rhabdomyosarcoma. Under such circumstances, the utilization of slow-flow images in contrast-enhanced MRI holds promise as a potentially valuable tool for discriminating between cavernous hemangioma and rhabdomyosarcoma in similar clinical scenarios.
膀胱孤立性海绵状血管瘤是一种罕见的疾病,在将其与横纹肌肉瘤区分开来时常常面临挑战。在此背景下,我们报告一例8岁男性儿童被诊断为膀胱海绵状血管瘤的病例,该病例在MRI上与横纹肌肉瘤的表现极为相似。在这种情况下,利用对比增强MRI中的慢流图像有望成为在类似临床情况下鉴别海绵状血管瘤和横纹肌肉瘤的潜在有价值工具。
