Abstract:

Epithelioid angiomyolipoma (EAML) are rare tumours and belong to a family of tumours known as perivascular epitheloid cell tumors which also include classic angiomyolipoma. Renal EAML have a female preponderance and are often difficult to diagnose as they mimic renal cell carcinoma due to similar clinical symptoms and imaging. There are few anecdotal reports on liver metastasis from renal EAML highlighting the fact that the patients should be followed up with imaging so that any metastasis can be picked up in time and treated on its merit. We present a case report of a 20 year old male who developed liver metastasis needing resection, 3 years after left nephrectomy for an EAML.
