Unilateral Renal Haemangiopericytoma: Report of a Rare Tumour

The pericytes are modified smooth muscle cells (SMCs) that surrounding capillaries and to change the diameter of vascular lumen. In this article we report a case of renal haemangiopericytoma. A 78-year-old woman was admitted with a complaint of abdominal pain. Ultrasonography revealed a solid injury...
