AB  - Adrenal cavernous hemangiomas are a rare, benign, and 
non-functional tumor. We report a case of a 62-year-old 
male who presented with right upper quadrant and flank 
pain. Physical examination revealed a fullness of the 
right upper quadrant. Both computed tomography and 
magnetic resonance imaging suggested a hemangioma originating from the liver. During angiography with the 
intent of embolization, it was discovered that the vascular 
supply was consistent with an adrenal mass rather than 
a hepatic origin. The patient was referred to Urology 
and underwent curative right open adrenalectomy and 
nephrectomy. Histopathology confirmed the diagnosis 
of an adrenal cavernous hemangioma.
