Abstract
The Authors present a case of extrarenal angiomyolipoma. The tumor arose from the pericolonic fat of the sigmoid colon and, increasing in size, caused intestinal obstruction by extrinsic lesion. Extrarenal angiomyolipoma is extremely rare and to our knowledge this is the first reported case arising from the colonic wall.
