Cavernous hemangiomas of the adrenal glands are extremely rare benign lesions and most are incidental findings. The increasing frequency of the adrenal masses detection is due to the widespread use of the contemporary imaging techniques. We review incidence, pathology, clinical features, diagnostic and therapeutic treatment of the adrenal cavernous hemangiomas.

Neuroblastoma is a malignant tumor derived from the neural crest cells that often involves the adrenal glands and rarely metastasizes to the skin. Here, we present a case of a nine-month-old male infant who presented with multiple noncompressible blue-purple subcutaneous nodules, initially suggestive of atypical deep hemangiomas. The ultrasound revealed a lack of increased vascularity of the masses and an adrenal mass, leading to a biopsy and diagnosis of a neuroblastoma involving the adrenal gland, liver, and skin.

Article Synopsis
- Anastomosing hemangioma (AH) is a rare benign vascular tumor often confused with malignant tumors due to its similar histological features.
- A case study involving a 64-year-old man showed that despite imaging suggesting a paraganglioma after an accident, further tests and surgery revealed it was actually an AH.
- The report emphasizes the importance of distinguishing AH from malignancies to avoid misdiagnosis and unnecessary treatments, highlighting the need for careful evaluation through imaging and histopathology.
