CT Finding of Renal Vein Invasion by Aggressive Renal Angiomyolipoma: a case report
نویسندگان
چکیده
This 46-year-old female was told to have a right renal tumor several years ago in a health examination. Follow-up computed tomography images revealed a fat-containing tumor with invasion of right renal vein and inferior vena cava. Right radical nephrectomy and cavotomy were performed and aggressive renal angiomyolipoma was impressed. We found the characteristic imaging finding of early renal vein invasion of the aggressive renal angiomyolipoma by comparison of the serial follow-up images.

Epithelioid angiomyolipoma (E-AML), accounting for 8% of renal angiomyolipoma, is usually associated with tuberous sclerosis (TS) and demonstrates aggressive behavior. E-AML is macroscopically seen as a large infiltrative necrotic tumor with occasional extension into renal vein and/or inferior vena cava. However, without history of TS, renal sinus and venous invasion E-AML would be a challengin...

Awareness of the variation and renal vascular abnormality at retroperitoneal space surgeries such as kidney surgery and transplantation is very important and necessary. Complexity in the veins development of the kidney area of fetus leads to a series of changes in the production of these veins, including the extra kidney vein, and the posterior aorta vein. In this case report, we present a case...

A 22-year-old female presented with back pain and was discovered to have a right-sided abdominal mass. Computed tomography (CT) scan revealed a 9 cm enhancing right upper pole renal mass with suspicion for tumor thrombus into the right renal vein and possibly the inferior vena cava (IVC). Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) confirmed tumor thrombus into the inferior vena cava approximately 3 cm be...
متن کاملAggressive Renal Angiomyolipoma of the Lipomatous Variant With Inferior Vena Cava Thrombus: A Case Report and Review of the Literature*
Two variants of renal angiomyolipoma (AML)-classic and epithelioid-have been described. Although the epithelioid variant has been reported to demonstrate an aggressive clinical behavior, classic AML is usually benign. Herein, we report a case of a 42-year-old asymptomatic woman with a lipomatous variant of renal AML associated with an inferior vena cava thrombus managed with radical nephrectomy...

Renal angiomyolipoma (AML) is the most common type of benign mesenchymal tumor of the kidney. AMLs typically present as benign lesions without local invasion. However, the tumor may exhibit aggressive behavior. Intravascular extension into the inferior vena cava (IVC) and hemorrhagic aneurysm formation associated with AML has rarely been reported in the past. In the current study, the novel cas...
