Contrast enhanced computed tomography (CECT) scan films of abdomen revealed that a large fat containing tumor had replaced the left kidney while displacing the rest of the abdominal contents toward the other side of the midline. Intraoperatively the left kidney was completely replaced by a fat containing tumor. The recovered surgical specimen measured 39 cm \u00d7 25 cm \u00d7 9 cm and weighed 7500 g. Histopathological investigation with immuno-histochemical staining of the specimen with hydroxy beta-methylbutyric acid-45 confirmed this lesion as AML. CECT scan of the head did not show any lesion suggestive of tuberous sclerosis. The giant tumor of the present case is the heaviest AML in both syndromic and sporadic categories and largest by dimensions as sporadic AML ever reported in the literature.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.4103\/2156-7514.122326","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2013,11,28]],"date-time":"2013-11-28T09:06:36Z","timestamp":1385629596000},"page":"56","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.25259\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":22,"title":["Giant Renal Angiomyolipoma: Unusual Cause of Huge Abdominal Mass"],"prefix":"10.25259","volume":"3","author":[{"given":"Rajesh","family":"Taneja","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Urology, Indraprastha Apollo Hospitals, New Delhi, India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Dig Vijay","family":"Singh","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Urology, Mohandai Oswal Hospital, Ludhiana, Punjab, India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"10894","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2013,11,28]]},"reference":[{"key":"10.4103\/2156-7514.122326\/ref-1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"846.e3","DOI":"10.1016\/j.urology.2005.10.030","article-title":"Controversies related to epithelioid variant of renal angiomyolipoma: A review of the literature","volume":"67","author":"Serrano","year":"2006","journal-title":"Urology"},{"key":"10.4103\/2156-7514.122326\/ref-2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"138","DOI":"10.1016\/S0090-4295(01)01505-9","article-title":"Nephron-sparing nephrectomy for giant renal angiomyolipoma associated with lymphangioleiomyomatosis","volume":"59","author":"Hsu","year":"2002","journal-title":"Urology"},{"key":"10.4103\/2156-7514.122326\/ref-3","first-page":"1498","article-title":"Benign renal tumors","volume-title":"Campbell-Walsh, Urology","author":"Vitaly","year":"2012","edition":"10th ed"},{"key":"10.4103\/2156-7514.122326\/ref-4","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"579","DOI":"10.1016\/S1607-551X(09)70510-8","article-title":"Giant extrarenal retroperitoneal angiomyolipoma: A case report and literature review","volume":"19","author":"Lee","year":"2003","journal-title":"Kaohsiung J Med Sci"},{"key":"10.4103\/2156-7514.122326\/ref-5","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"470","DOI":"10.1046\/j.1442-2042.2001.00344.x","article-title":"A case of angiomyolipoma presenting as a huge retroperitoneal mass","volume":"8","author":"Tsutsumi","year":"2001","journal-title":"Int J Urol"},{"key":"10.4103\/2156-7514.122326\/ref-6","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"133","DOI":"10.1016\/S0210-4806(04)73052-1","article-title":"Giant renal angiomyolipoma disclosed by mild lumbar trauma and treated with nephrectomy: Report of a case","volume":"28","author":"Rossell\u00f3 Barbar\u00e1","year":"2004","journal-title":"Actas Urol Esp"},{"key":"10.4103\/2156-7514.122326\/ref-7","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"200","DOI":"10.1016\/S0899-7071(96)00019-8","article-title":"Massive renal angiomyolipoma in tuberous sclerosis","volume":"21","author":"Katz","year":"1997","journal-title":"Clin Imaging"}],"container-title":["Journal of Clinical Imaging Science"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/clinicalimagingscience.org\/giant-renal-angiomyolipoma-unusual-cause-of-huge-abdominal-mass\/","content-type":"text\/html","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/clinicalimagingscience.org\/giant-renal-angiomyolipoma-unusual-cause-of-huge-abdominal-mass\/","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2023,7,8]],"date-time":"2023-07-08T13:40:20Z","timestamp":1688823620000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/clinicalimagingscience.org\/giant-renal-angiomyolipoma-unusual-cause-of-huge-abdominal-mass\/"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2013,11,28]]},"references-count":7,"alternative-id":["10.4103\/2156-7514.122326"],"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.4103\/2156-7514.122326","relation":{},"ISSN":["2156-7514"],"issn-type":[{"value":"2156-7514","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2013,11,28]]},"article-number":"56"}}
