Adrenal angiosarcoma

Abstract: Adrenal angiosarcoma is an uncommon neoplasm that derives from the vascular endothelium; due to its biological behavior, it should be distinguished from other adrenal tumors. We herein report a case of a 57-year-old woman with diagnosis of an adrenal tumor that was suspected to be malignant. The specimen was histopathologically proved to be an angiosarcoma. The patient was suffering from right upper quadrant pain; after laboratory and radiological workup, a non-functioning right adrenal mass, 14 cm in size, wa… Show more

“…The necrosis area of angiosarcoma is greater, compared to that of ES. Meanwhile, it has specific imaging features on enhanced CT or MRI: demonstrating peripheral enhancement in arterial phase and expansion to the center in venous and delayed phase, which is similar to typical findings of hemangioma (10,11). A large mass with intra-tumor necrosis and adjacent structure invasion are common imaging findings of leiomyosarcoma, but bleeding and calcification are rare.…”
