title: Aggressive Renal Angiomyolipoma of the Lipomatous Variant With Inferior Vena Cava Thrombus: A Case Report and Review of the Literature.
abstract: Two variants of renal angiomyolipoma (AML)-classic and epithelioid-have been described. Although the epithelioid variant has been reported to demonstrate an aggressive clinical behavior, classic AML is usually benign. Herein, we report a case of a 42-year-old asymptomatic woman with a lipomatous variant of renal AML associated with an inferior vena cava thrombus managed with radical nephrectomy and caval thrombectomy.
