title: [Clarification of the ultrasound features of benign kidney tumors. Apropos of 10 cases].
abstract: Benign tumours of the kidney are rare conditions; their pre-operative diagnosis is of great importance, as in many cases it avoids the need for a total or even extended nephrectomy. The authors report 10 cases of benign renal tumours, which were explored by ultrasound and confirmed: an adenoma, a haemangiopericytoma, 4 angiomyolipomas, 2 oncocytomas and 2 multilocular cysts. The ultrasound appearance of these tumours does not seem to be specific. The angiomyolipoma only had a typical appearance in two cases, while the other two cases had an appearance no different from an adenocarcinoma or from another benign tumour.
