Retroperitoneal hemangioma of infancy

A premature infant presented with an incidental finding of a mass in the retroperitoneum adjacent to the adrenal gland seen on a renal ultrasound study. A clinical diagnosis of neuroblastoma was made based on imaging and laboratory studies; however, upon resection, histological examination revealed a cellular capillary hemangioma of infancy. Hemangioma should be considered in the differential diagnosis of asymptomatic retroperitoneal mass lesions in infants.
