The cavernous type is most commonly observed on the lateral wall of the nose or the inferior turbinate. This report describes a case of cavernous hemangioma diagnosed in a rare location in the left retromaxillary masticatory space in a 67-year-old […]

Hemangioperycytoma is a rare perivascular tumor that seldom involves the urogenital system. This tumor often appears with an unspecific clinical picture, and sometimes is associated with hematuria or hypertension. Diagnosis is based on a combination of histological and immunohistological findings. We report a case of a 52-year-old patient with renal hemangiopericytoma who underwent surgical treatment at our service. This report also includes a literature review on the subject.
