“…[8][9][10] Although it has been described in the human literature for decades, it is considered a rare condition. [8][9][10][11] The first report in humans was in 1959 by Wallach et al, 12 in which a small hemangioma of the renal pelvis causing severe hematuria was described. In veterinary medicine, there have been few cases reported for the literature and, rarely, lesions detected on histologic evaluation.…”

Objective: To analyze the short and long term safety and efficacy of ureteroscopic evaluation and management of chronic unilateral hematuria. Methods:We retrospectively reviewed patients with chronic unilateral hematuria from 1987 to 2008. The distal to middle ureter was evaluated with a semi-rigid ureteroscope without a guidewire. Subsequently, the flexible ureteroscope was advanced into the upper ureter to the renal pelvis using a low-pressure automated irrigant system (Uromat TM ). Lesions identified ureteroscopically were treated with diathermy fulguration.Results: One hundred and four (56 male, 48 female) patients were identified, with a median age of 37 (14-80) years and median follow-up of 139 (34-277) months. The median preoperative duration of gross hematuria was 5 (1-144) months. Endoscopic findings included 61 (56%) minute venous rupture (MVR; a venous bleeding without clear abnormalities), 21 (20%) hemangioma (vascular tumor-like structure), 3 (3%) varix (tortuous vein), 1 (1%) calculus and 18 (17%) no lesions. The incidence of ''no lesions'' was less in the recent 12 years (9%) than the first 10 years (27%), while the incidence of MVR increased from 40 to 66% (p,0.05). All patients were treated endoscopically. Immediate success rate was 96% (100% in the recent 12 years). Long-term recurrent gross hematuria rate was 7%. Six resolved spontaneously and only 1 required ureteroscopy, revealing a different bleeding site.Conclusion: Ureteroscopy and diathermy fulguration is highly useful for evaluation and treatment of chronic unilateral hematuria. Sophisticated technique and improved instrumentation contributes to a better outcome.

“…Usually renal hemangioma is a solitary and uni- lateral mass with no predilection for side or sex and with a peak incidence in patients aged from 30 to 40 years [1,3,4]. Multifocal lesions in the same kidney have been reported in 12% of cases.…”

“…Renal angiography is the diagnostic method of choice but the small size of lesions, the presence of thrombosed vessels and the vascular structure of the tumor can make detection and differentiation from renal carcinoma arduous [1,8]. For these reasons, most cases of hemangioma are diagnosed after surgical excision [4,9].…”
