title: A rare case of xanthogranulomatous pyelonepheritis with hepatic angiomyolipoma.
abstract: Xantogranulomatous pyelonephritis (XGP) is a rare and chronic variant of pyelonephritis typically associated with obstruction and infection. Xantogranulomatous pyelonephritis can infiltrate liver and connect with hepatic dysfunction. Here we report on a 52-year-old female with a liver mass and a left renal mass detected by uitrasonography and magnetic resonance imaging. Right lobectomy and partial nephrectomy were successively performed. Subsequent pathologic examination indicated hepatic angiomyolipoma and xanthogranulomatous pyelonepheritis, respectively. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first case of such rare combination.
