Abstract

Renal angiomyolipomas, common benign tumors, can exhibit slow growth in sporadic cases or have aggressive tendencies when linked to genetic conditions like tuberous sclerosis. This case report focuses on the exceptionally rare angiomyolipoma with epithelial cysts (AMLEC) variant, particularly challenging to diagnose due to its scarcity. Describing a 41-year-old woman's case, initially suspected to be renal cell carcinoma during an infertility evaluation, subsequent partial nephrectomy revealed a tumor comprising smooth muscle, blood vessels, and fat, with cystic regions featuring cuboidal linings and a layer devoid of abnormal cell activity. Immunohistochemistry confirmed specific markers within different tumor components, highlighting the diagnostic complexities of AMLEC and emphasizing the crucial role of histopathological examinations in accurate characterizations.
