Abstract

Primary hemangiosarcoma of the kidney is a very rare tumor for which only 23 case reports appear in the literature worldwide. An additional case of renal angiosarcoma in an adult is reported. The patient developed local tumor recurrence with multiple metastases within 4 weeks and died although there was no evidence of metastases at the time of nephrectomy.
