Hepatic angiomyolipoma: progressive changes in size and tumor composition.
We report on 8 years of imaging and clinical follow-up of a confirmed hepatic angiomyolipoma (AML) undergoing notable growth over this period. The tumor grew considerably in the first 5 years, and its growth especially affected the fatty component; in the last 3 years, growth occurred more slowly. Radiologists should be aware that tumor growth of a hepatic AML can occur.
