A rare, massive adrenal hemangioma was surgically removed. This non-functioning adrenal tumor, measuring 25 cm and weighing 4 kg, highlights surgical success in managing large adrenal masses.

Area of Science:

  • Endocrinology
  • Surgical Oncology
  • Pathology

Background:

  • Adrenal tumors are classified as functioning or non-functioning.
  • Non-functioning adrenal tumors often present asymptomatically at advanced stages.
  • Adrenal hemangiomas are rare benign vascular tumors of the adrenal gland.

Observation:

  • A case of a patient with a massive right adrenal hemangioma is presented.
  • The tumor was exceptionally large, measuring 25 cm in diameter and weighing 4 kg.
  • The hemangioma was well-encapsulated, suggesting a distinct surgical plane.

Findings:

  • Successful surgical resection of the huge adrenal hemangioma was achieved.
  • The patient's outcome post-surgery was positive, indicating effective treatment.
