ABSTRACT
@#A 40-year-old female complains of right flank plain associated with progressive abdominal enlargement. She had stable vital signs and normal renal function. CT urogram revealed bilateral flank masses suggestive of bilateral giant angiomyolipomas. She was counseled on the various treatment options and opted to undergo open surgical excision. She underwent an open clamp-less partial nephrectomy with no intraoperative events. Operative time was 120 minutes and estimated blood loss was 250cc. She was discharged in good clinical condition on postoperative day 4. Final histopathological analysis revealed angiomyolipoma. Genetic testing was positive for mosaic variant of tuberous sclerosis. After a year of follow up, she remains stable and is maintained on everolimus. Open ischemia-free partial nephrectomy may be done safely for giant renal angiomyolipomas. Radical nephrectomy should be reserved for the last option because the presence of contralateral disease may also require surgical excision in the future.
