Hepatic Epithelioid Angiomyolipoma: Case Series
Hepatic epithelioid angiomyolipoma (AML) is a rare, benign, mesenchymal neoplasm found in both males and females, and most commonly encountered in adult females. These lesions are difficult to diagnose by imaging, especially when fatty component is scant or absent. Histomorphologically, they resemble hepatocellular carcinoma. The tumor cells are strongly positive for homatropine methylbromide-4...

متن کاملHepatic epithelioid angiomyolipoma: a malignant potential tumor and literature review
Hepatic epithelioid angiomyolipoma (HEAML) is an extremely rare primary hepatic tumor which is easily misdiagnosed as hepatocellular carcinoma or other tumors before surgery. It is a special kind of angiomyolipoma that is rarely reported in the liver. Patients with HEAML may recurrence or metastasis after surgery. The research on prognosis of the disease is poor due to its malignant potential. ...
متن کاملEpithelioid Angiomyolipoma of Kidneys
Renal angiomyolipoma (AML) is a benign tumor composed of fat cells, smooth muscle cells, and thick-wall blood vessels. Epithelioid angiomyolipoma (EAML) is a variant of AML and is composed of purely epithelioid cell with melanogenesis markers. Neither adipocytes nor abnormal blood vessels are noted. Pathologically, tumor cells have nuclear atypia and eosinophilic cytoplasm. EAML has a malignant...
