Angiomyolipoma with epithelial cysts (AMLEC) is a rare variant of angiomyolipoma with minimal fat that contains epithelial-lined cysts and may mimic a cystic renal cell carcinoma. While 17 cases have been described in the pathology literature since this entity was first described in 2006, the radiologic appearance was not demonstrated in any of these cases. We report the CT and MRI appearance of AMLEC found incidentally in a patient with lupus nephritis.
血管平滑肌脂肪瘤伴上皮样囊肿(AMLEC)是一种罕见的血管平滑肌脂肪瘤亚型,其脂肪含量极少,包含上皮样 lined 囊肿,可能类似于囊性肾细胞癌。自 2006 年首次描述该疾病以来,病理学文献中已描述了 17 例病例,但这些病例均未显示放射学表现。我们报告了狼疮性肾炎患者中偶然发现的 AMLEC 的 CT 和 MRI 表现。
