Abstract:
Renal hemangioma is a rare, benign tumor, which usually causes unexplained painless gross hematuria with clots in the renal pelvis or ureter. It is generally venous origin but may be arterial and mixed venoarterial. Preoperative selective renal aniography may offer helpful diagnostic information but it is difficulty to distinguish it from malignant renal tumor. We reported here a case of renal cavernous hemangioma in a 31-year-old man.
