  • Title: Morphopathological and clinical diagnosis aspects of a bilateral dysembryoplasic renal tumor associated with Bourneville's tuberous sclerosis.

    Journal: Rom J Morphol Embryol; 1996; 42(3-4):203-12. PubMed ID: 9168670.
    Abstract:
    A 34-year old woman was admitted for bilateral flank pain, maleolary and palpebral oedema with an insidious evolution lasting for 5 years. Urogram showed a left ureteral duplicity and a right lacunary pelvic image. MRI and echography indicated the complete modification as a renal structure as well as the presence of some bilateral tumoral formations with a nonhomogenous structure, blood diffusion and adenopathy of the renal hilum. Nephrectomy revealed white-gray tumoral nodular tumours. The histopathological test evidenced proliferations of leiomyofibromatous, angiomatous, lipomatous, cartilaginous types with a benign aspect suggesting the diagnosis of a renal dysembryoplasic tumor (hamartoma).
