title: [Renal angiomyolipoma imaging: report of 9 cases].
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  To report the radiological polymorphism of angiomyolipoma (AML).
  
  
  METHODS
  [corrected] A retrospective series of eight cases of AML explored by US and CT scan. The diagnosis was radiological in seven cases and histopathological in one case.
  
  
  RESULTS
  Five cases of AML were discovered fortuitously. The tuberous sclerosis of Bourneville disease (TSB) was noted in five cases. The cverage age was 37 years with female predominance noted in seven cases. The AML were multiple in half cases all of thein had TSB. The tumoral size ranged from 0.5 cm and 20 cm. The US showed an homogenous hyperechogenique mass in six cases and heterogenous in two cases. The CT scan showed polymorph parenchymal lesions. The fatty component was detected in seven cases. An intratumoral bleeding was noted in one case.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  The radiological feature of AML is variable, related to tumoral size. It's typical when a tumor of kidney contains fat. An association with TSB is a supplementary argument of diagnosis.
