Zusammenfassung: | Primary adrenal angiosarcoma is a very rare malignancy. This is a case report of a 54-year-old female, who presented with right-sided abdominal pain. Magnetic resonance imaging of the abdomen and pelvis showed a right adrenal mass with a maximum dimension of 5.7 cm. The patient went for a laparoscopic right adrenalectomy. The postoperative period was uneventful, and she was discharged on postoperative day 2. The patient was free from complaints at outpatient follow-up visits. Pathology confirmed the diagnosis of adrenal angiosarcoma and the metastasis workup was negative. A multidisciplinary approach through the expertise of medical oncology, surgical oncology, and histopathology is essential for the diagnosis and management of such rare diseases. |
