Case Report
Overview
We present the case report of bilateral renal angiomyolipomas in a 70-year-old patient. Spontaneous bleeding into the retroperitoneum and hemodynamic instability required an acute surgical revision with a left-sided nephrectomy. The contralateral angiomyolipoma was selectively embolized in the second period and subsequently resected.
Keywords:
angiomyolipoma − spontaneous rupture − retroperitoneal bleeding − Wunderlich syndrome − tuberous sclerosis
