Intrarenal hemangiomas lack concise clinicopathologic information, due to the predominance of single case reports and inclusion of other vascular neoplasms and hemangiomas of perirenal, hilar, and renal vein origin. Herein, in this multi-institutional study we evaluate clinicopathologic features of 39 intrarenal hemangiomas. The median age was 62 years (range = 27-94 years; 2:1 male to female ratio), with left-sided predominance (left = 21, right = 13; one case was bilateral).

In extremely rare circumstances, CCMs have presented with concomitant brain abscess formation. To date, five cases have previously been reported, the majority of which have affected patients aged 16 years or older.

Purpose: Familial cerebral cavernous malformation syndrome (FCCM) is characterized by multiple hemorrhagic lesions and is sometimes mistaken for cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA).

Methods: We compared clinical and radiologic characteristics in patients with definite (N = 32) and presumed FCCM (n = 76) to patients with definite (N = 29) and probable CAA (N = 21).

Results: Patients with CAA were older (78.
