Abstract

A case of large exophytic renal angiomyolipoma in a 24-year-old female patient is presented. Abdominal CT scans showed the characteristic findings: a large exophytic welldemarcated fat density mass with sharp defect in renal parenchyma, enlarged intratumoral blood vessels and presence of additional intrarenal angiomyolipomas.CT is an accurate and clinically useful method to evaluate renal angiomyolipoma and provide the differential diagnostic information.
