title: [Suprarenal hemangioma. Presentation of a case and review of the literature].
abstract: Hemangiomas are benign vascular tumors that may present at any site and rarely in the adrenal gland. Twenty-four cases, all but one had been treated surgically, have been reported in the world literature. An additional case that had been diagnosed post-operatively is presented. The patient was submitted to surgery with the diagnosis of malignant neoplasm of the adrenal gland. This rare, benign tumor must be taken into account when making the differential diagnosis of adrenal masses. For this reason, it is necessary to be familiar with its clinical and radiologic features.
