An 83-year-old man with left lower back pain was found to have a 5 cm mass in contact with the right adrenal gland and a 12 mm left ureteral stone by abdominal plain computed tomography. An abdominal plain magnetic resonance imaging T2-weighted image revealed a heterogeneous high signal mass in the right adrenal gland. Pheochromocytoma, adrenal carcinoma, and retroperitoneal neurogenic tumor were suspected. Tumor markers and endocrine examinations were within standard values. Laparoscopic right adrenalectomy was performed. A 4×3.6 cm, 62 g solid tumor was found in contact with right adrenal gland. Histopathologically, hobnail-like vascular endothelial cells were found in the tumor, but no malignant findings such as multi-layered vascular endothelial cells and nuclear atypia were observed. This tumorwas diagnosed to be an anastomosing hemangioma.

D008297 Male Males
D010673 Pheochromocytoma A usually benign, well-encapsulated, lobular, vascular tumor of chromaffin tissue of the ADRENAL MEDULLA or sympathetic paraganglia. The cardinal symptom, reflecting the increased secretion of EPINEPHRINE and NOREPINEPHRINE, is HYPERTENSION, which may be persistent or intermittent. During severe attacks, there may be HEADACHE; SWEATING, palpitation, apprehension, TREMOR; PALLOR or FLUSHING of the face, NAUSEA and VOMITING, pain in the CHEST and ABDOMEN, and paresthesias of the extremities. The incidence of malignancy is as low as 5% but the pathologic distinction between benign and malignant pheochromocytomas is not clear.

D006391 Hemangioma A vascular anomaly due to proliferation of BLOOD VESSELS that forms a tumor-like mass. The common types involve CAPILLARIES and VEINS. It can occur anywhere in the body but is most frequently noticed in the SKIN and SUBCUTANEOUS TISSUE.

D042783 Endothelial Cells Highly specialized EPITHELIAL CELLS that line the HEART; BLOOD VESSELS; and lymph vessels, forming the ENDOTHELIUM. They are polygonal in shape and joined together by TIGHT JUNCTIONS. The tight junctions allow for variable permeability to specific macromolecules that are transported across the endothelial layer.
