Giant renal angiomyolipomas in tuberous sclerosis complex.

Abstract

Angiomyolipomas are the benign tumours of the kidney which occur either sporadically or in association with tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC). Symptoms typically develop with an increase in the size of the lesion. We present a clinical image of a patient with giant renal angiomyolipomas who had other clinical features of TSC (facial angiofibromas, periungual fibroma, subependymal nodules in the brain, and lung cysts).
