Renal angiomyolipoma - sarcomatous transformation and cavoatrial extension

Intralesional leiomyosarcoma malignant transformation from a biopsied benign angioleiomyoma of the proximal anterior tibia

We present a novel case of a malignant transformation of an extremity soft tissue angioleiomyoma to leiomyosarcoma in a man in his late 70s who presented with a painful and increasing lump on his anterior tibia. Initial imaging and biopsy showed a benign angioleiomyoma which was excised for symptomatic reasons. An analysis of the resulting specimen revealed a 50×42×15 mm smooth muscle neoplasm consistent with angioleiomyoma with a 22×11 mm entirely intralesional nodular component in keeping with a grade 1 leiomyosarcoma. The malignant constituent of the lesion was entirely encased in benign angioleiomyoma negating the need for further surgery. Systemic staging investigation revealed no evidence of metastatic disease spread final staging as per the eighth edition of the American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC) Staging T1N0M0 R0 Stage 1 a.

Benevolent Renal Angiomyolipoma with Intra-cardiac Extension-A Challenge in Diagnosis and Management

While intra-caval and intra-cardiac extension of retroperitoneal tumors is extremely rare, it is almost unheard-of in benign tumors. We report the challenges in diagnosis and management of the first case of a renal angiomyolipoma (AML) with intra-ventricular extension in a young man who presented with pain and a lump in the abdomen.
