Symptomatic bilateral renal angiomyolipomas in a child.
We report a case of bilateral renal angiomyolipomas in a child with Bourneville's tuberous sclerosis. The case is unusual because of the early age of the patient at which symptoms occurred. The presentation and treatment are discussed, and the literature is reviewed. Renal disease can occur in young patients with tuberous sclerosis and it is of clinical importance to document renal involvement in these children.
