Renal leiomyoma is a benign finding in kidney pathology. It has been documented in various organs; renal location is less frequent and has been rarely documented in the literature. We present here the case of a renal leiomyoma revealed by an abdominal mass and flank pain. The diagnosis of certainty is histological, generally on surgical specimens. Due to the challenges associated with clinically diagnosing this tumor, a high level of suspicion is warranted when a patient presents with sizable and clearly defined renal lesions.
肾平滑肌瘤是肾脏病理学中的一种良性表现。它已在多个器官中被记录;肾脏部位较少见,文献中鲜有记载。我们在此呈现一例因腹部肿块和侧腹疼痛而发现的肾平滑肌瘤病例。确诊通常依靠手术标本的组织学检查。由于临床上诊断这种肿瘤存在挑战,当患者出现较大且边界清晰的肾脏病变时,需要高度怀疑。
