Angiomiolipomas (AML) are benign mesenchymal tumors of unknown origin, that consist of mature adipose tissue, muscle fibers and blood vessel with thickened wall (1). Renal AMLs represent 1% of renal tumors. However, extra-renal AMLs are extremely rare, and 60 cases have been described. Most extra-renal AMLs were observed at liver (18 patients) and at retroperitoneum (16 cases) (2). We report a retroperitoneum extra-renal AML.
