Adenomatoid tumors are benign neoplasms of mesothelial phenotype, commonly found in the genital tracts. Hepatic adenomatoid tumors are extremely uncommon and can present diagnostic challenges, particularly when mixed with other histologic elements. Here we report an adenomatoid tumor with prominent admixed cavernous hemangioma-like vessels in the liver of a 58-year-old woman.

Unlabelled: Cavernous hemangiomas are venous malformations characterized by interconnected channels of abnormally dilated blood vessels having low flow of blood. Whilst venous malformations most commonly affect the head and neck region, isolated cavernous hemangiomas of the palatine tonsils are extremely rare; with only 4 cases being reported in the English Literature. We report a case of a 43-year-old female who was referred to us for the evaluation and management of a right tonsillar swelling.
