Abstract

Renal epithelioid angiomyolipoma (EAML), a kind of angiomyolipoma (AML), can mimic renal cell carcinoma and may render either benign or malignant behavior. The reliability of radiological imaging is limited in the diagnosis and histopathologic examination is required for the definitive diagnosis. In these tumors, relationship with tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) and malignancy and poor prognostic criteria should be carefully questioned and patients should be considered accordingly. In this article, two cases were presented in whom surgeries were performed because of renal masses and diagnosed as EAML which were a 28-yearold woman and a 59-year-old male in the light of the literature.
