Multicentric angiomyolipoma: renal and lymph node involvement

Urology. 1986 Aug;28(2):111-3. doi: 10.1016/0090-4295(86)90098-1.

Abstract

A retrospective review of 6 patients with renal angiomyolipoma treated surgically revealed regional lymph node involvement in 2--an incidence of 33 per cent. The clinical behavior in these patients suggests that nodal involvement is an expression of multicentricity rather than metastatic disease.
