Title: [Angiomyolipoma of the kidney]. Author: Rasenack U, Hennermann KH, Laubenberger T. Journal: Dtsch Med Wochenschr; 1983 Oct 28; 108(43):1639-43. PubMed ID: 6628240.

It protruded from the renal surface and gave dense echoes, suggestive more of an angiomyolipoma than a hypernephroma. The former diagnosis was reenforced by the angiographic appearance and confirmed by biopsy at the time of surgery. Nephrectomy was performed and the postoperative course was without complication.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
