title: [A case of multiple renal hemangioma].
abstract: A 53-year-old man presented with a right heterogeneous renal tumor detected by ultrasonography (US) on a routine health check. He had no complaint. Computed tomography (CT) revealed a 4 cm-diameter heterogeneous tumor located near a calcification of the right kidney, which was not so enhanced. Subsequent magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and angiography could not rule out the malignancy of the tumor, so we performed total nephrectomy. Pathological diagnosis was multiple renal hemangioma. Multiple renal hemangioma is a rare disease, being the second reported case in the Japanese literature.
