[Retroperitoneal hematoma caused by a renal angiomyolipoma (review of the literature and diagnostic-therapeutic considerations)].
The authors describe a case of perirenal hematoma, secundary to the breakage of an angiomyolipoma which appeared to their observation under the classic Wunderlich' syndrome. After shortly reviewing the preoperative diagnostic chances, they, as a conclusion, affirm that, unfortunately, the most rational treatment in case of isolated AML still consists of nephrectomy, because of the possible diagnostical mistakes and the concomitance of malignant neoplastic diseases.
