ABSTRACT
Abstract Renal angiomyolipoma is a benign and progressive tumor consisting of smooth muscle, fat, and vascular elements and is commonly associated with the tuberous sclerosis complex. Bilateral occurrence is rare and recent evidence suggest strong tumor positivity to female hormones with enlargement during pregnancy and oral contraceptive therapy. Treatment varies from a minimally invasive approach with selective embolization of the renal artery to partial nephrectomy or sometimes even radical nephrectomy. Presented here is a case of bilateral renal angiomyolipoma in 50-year-old lady who was successfully treated with super-selective embolization.
RESUMO
Resumo O angiomiolipoma renal é um tumor benigno e progressivo composto por músculo liso, gordura e elementos vasculares, comumente associado ao complexo da esclerose tuberosa. Sua ocorrência bilateral é rara, e evidências recentes sugerem forte positividade do tumor para hormônios femininos, com aumento do tamanho durante a gravidez e uso de contraceptivos orais. O tratamento varia desde uma abordagem minimamente invasiva de embolização seletiva da artéria renal até nefrectomia parcial ou, às vezes, nefrectomia radical. Apresentamos um caso de angiomiolipoma renal bilateral em uma mulher de 50 anos que passou por tratamento bem-sucedido com embolização superseletiva.
