Early diagnosis and straight forward surgery of an asymptomatic primary angiosarcoma of the kidney led to long-term survival
Abstract
We report the first case of a diagnosis of an asymptomatic primary renal angiosarcoma. The patient underwent laparoscopic nephrectomy and is alive after long-term follow up. We provide the preoperative imaging studies and the histologic features of this exceedingly rare tumor.
