A case of perirenal hemangioma mimicking renal cell carcinoma.
OBJECTIVE
We present a rare case of perirenal hemangioma that was detected incidentally.


RESULTS
Radiographic examinations revealed a 3.5 cm mass at the left renal hilum adjacent to the left renal parenchyma, which was difficult to differentially diagnose from renal cell carcinoma. Tumor resection was performed successfully.


CONCLUSIONS
There was no recurrence observed 14 months after surgery.
