Observation:

  • A case of a solitary, large, noncutaneous retroperitoneal hemangioma in a young child is presented.
  • The tumor's clinicopathologic features were analyzed.
  • Diagnostic imaging modalities were utilized for characterization.

Findings:

  • The study discusses the differential diagnosis for retroperitoneal masses in children.
