    Author: Vesga Molina F, Lecumberri D, Llarena Ibarguren R, Pertusa Peña C.
    Journal: Arch Esp Urol; 1996 Oct; 49(8):868-70. PubMed ID: 9065287.
    Abstract:
    OBJECTIVES: To review the more relevant clinical aspects of extrarenal angiomyolipoma, an uncommon disease entity. METHODS: The patient was a middle-aged female in whom an irregular right extrarenal mass had been detected. The pathological analysis disclosed a hamartoma. RESULTS: Complete resection of this lesion achieved cure. METHODS: Angiomyolipoma is a benign tumor that generally involves one or both kidneys. Extrarenal angiomyolipoma is extremely uncommon and may warrant the use of diagnostic tools distinct from the widespread algorithm and may require aggressive maneuvers to make the correct diagnosis.
