Abstract
The differential diagnosis of angiomyolipomas is an manifold as their angiographic appearances. The differentiation of this renal hamartoma from its most important differential diagnosis, carcinoma of the kidney, is possible only occasionally even when one includes epidemiological, clinical and angiographic findings, CT, in the other hand, provides certain pre-operative diagnosis in most cases by showing portions of the tumour of fat density. In any case, surgical treatment should be carried out, but the actual procedure will be significantly influenced. Demonstration of a benign space-occupying lesion allows one to plan a procedure which will preserve the kidney.
