Figures & Tables

Figure 1

(left) CT of the abdomen of a 59-year-old Thai woman showing a huge mass anterior to her right kidney. Lymphadenopathy was not seen. The rest of the image appeared normal. (middle and right) Ultrasonography of the kidney after partial nephrectomy showed ureter and bladder, normal size kidneys, and normal cortical thickness. The size of the right kidney was 9.7 cm long with a 9 mm cortical thickness, and the left kidney was 10.1 cm long with a 10 mm cortical thickness. An echoic area suggestive of a surgical scar is noted in the right renal upper pole. The rest of the image is unremarkable with a clearly defined corticomedullary junction and smooth renal contour. There was neither definite renal stone nor hydronephrosis.

Angiomyolipoma from the kidney showing an admixture of fat, blood vessels, and smooth muscle (hematoxylin and eosin staining, bar 550 μm, original magnification ×40), and (D) higher magnification of smooth muscle and fat components in the angiomyolipoma (hematoxylin and eosin staining, bar 550 μm, original magnification ×60)
