Preferred Label : Angiomyolipoma;
NCIt definition : A neoplasm with perivascular epithelioid cell differentiation often associated with
tuberous sclerosis. It is characterized by a mixture of epithelioid cells, smooth
muscle, vessels, and mature adipose tissue. The kidney is the most common site of
involvement. Other sites of involvement include the liver, lung, lymph nodes, and
retroperitoneum. The vast majority of cases follow a benign clinical course. However,
cases of metastatic angiomyolipomas with sarcomatoid features have been described.;
Alternative definition : NCI-GLOSS: A benign (noncancer) tumor of fat and muscle tissue that usually is found
in the kidney. Angiomyolipomas rarely cause symptoms, but may bleed or grow large
enough to be painful or cause kidney failure. They are common in patients with tuberous
sclerosis (a genetic disorder in which benign tumors grow in the kidneys, brain, eyes,
heart, lungs, and skin, causing seizures, mental problems, and skin lesions).;
