Hepatic Angiomyolipoma: Diagnostic Findings and Management
Angiomyolipoma (AML) is a benign mesenchymal tumor that is frequently found in the kidney and, rarely, in the liver. The natural history of hepatic AML has not been clarified, and, because of the similar patterns in imaging studies, such as ultrasonography, computed tomography, and magnetic resonance imaging, some of these tumors have been overdiagnosed as hepatocellular carcinoma in the past. ...
متن کاملHepatic Angiomyolipoma
Hepatic angiomyolipomas are rare benign tumours. First reported by Ishak in 1976. Since then, the world literature showed only 32 cases including 8 autopsy findings. In this paper a retrospective analysis of the published data will be presented and the first report of the preoperative colour doppler and intraoperative sonography appearances will also be described.
متن کاملRenal and hepatic angiomyolipoma.
It is now common practice to undertake ultrasonography as the initial investigation of the renal tract but the finding of multiple hyperechoic tumours was quite unexpected. Such marked hyperechogenicity indicates a markedly fatty or fibrous consistency and excludes multiple cystic disease. Multiple well defined tumours in both kidneys is very suggestive ofangiomyolipomas, a benign hamartomatous...
متن کاملImmunohistochemical Character of Hepatic Angiomyolipoma: For Its Management
Hepatic angiomyolipoma (AML) is notoriously difficult to diagnose without an invasive surgery even with the recent development of the various imaging modalities. Additionally, recent reports showed its malignant behavior after the surgery; it is important to diagnose the character of each tumor including the possible malignant potential and determine the postoperative management for each case. ...
متن کاملHepatic angiomyolipoma: a case report.
We experienced a rare case of hepatic angiomyolipoma (AML). A 66-year old Japanese female presented inhomogeneous echogenic lesion in the lateral segment of the liver on ultrasonography. Contrast computed tomography (CT) revealed early arterial enhancement within the lesion that stayed hyperdense in the equilibrium phase. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) demonstrated a non-homogeneous and parti...
