Core Tip

Core Tip: Anastomosing hemangioma (AH) is difficult to recognize because of its rarity and atypia. Herein, we report a case of AH in an old woman that was discovered incidentally and confirmed pathologically. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first case of AH reported in the left renal vein. Recognizing that AH may occur in the left renal vein will help improve doctors' vigilance and reduce the probability of misdiagnosis.
