ABSTRACT
Angiomyolipoma with epithelial cysts (AMLEC) is a recently described entity and is an uncommon subtype of kidney angiomyolipomas. AMLEC is a benign entity but usually masquerades a renal cell carcinoma on imaging examination. AMLEC has a distinct histological and immunohistochemical staining pattern, which helps in the pathological diagnosis. We present a rare case of AMLEC in a 26-year-old female, which was provisionally diagnosed as renal cell carcinoma on radiology. We also summarize the differential diagnosis of this rare variant, its characteristic features, and a review of the literature.
