Cavernous hemangioma of the kidney. Case report.

Renal hemangiomas are rare neoplasms of the kidney, and the number of cases reported in the literature are about 200 since the original description by Virchow in 1867. Among these, only a few have been examined by the combination of ultrasound, computed tomography, and angiography. We present a demonstrative case diagnosed at our clinic and review the corresponding literature.
