Benign Malignant
Angiomyolipomas
• The most common benign solid renal lesion.
• Composed of abnormal blood vessels, smooth muscle, and adipose elements.
• The majority are sporadic (80%).
• Typically identified in adults (mean age of presentation 40 years).
• Female predilection (F:M of 4:1).
• 20% associated with tuberous sclerosis.
• Often large, multiple and bilateral in tuberous sclerosis patients.
• Often asymptomatic, incidental imaging finding.
• In cases where the mass is large, then a flank or abdominal mass may
be the presenting complaint.
• Stauffer syndrome: hepatic dysfunction not related to metastases
• Renal cell carcinomas arise from tubular epithelium, and encompasses a
number of distinct histological varieties:
• Clear cell renal carcinoma (conventional):
• Multiple bilateral renal masses are the most common presentation, occurring in
40%–60% of patients.
• Diffuse nephromegaly is the least common of these manifestations.
• Lymphoma of the
kidney.
• Post-contrast CT

multifocal solid
masses in both
kidneys with para-
aortic nodal disease
highly suggestive of
lymphoma.
• Diffuse enlargement of
both kidneys in a patient
with lymphoma.
• Renal lymphoma.
