Abstract
OBJECTIVE To assess various management options for renal angiomyolipoma (AML) to guide clinical practice. METHODS A single center retrospectively reviewed an AML series from 2002 to 2022. The image reports and chart reviews of patients who received two abdominal scans at least 6 months between the first and last scans were assessed. RESULTS A total of 203 patients with 209 tumors were identified and followed up for a median of 42.6 months. Active surveillance (AS) was the most frequently selected option (70.9% of cases). Interventions were required for 59 AMLs, of which 20 were treated with embolization, 29 with partial nephrectomy, 9 with radical nephrectomy, and 1 with radiofrequency (RF) ablation. The median size of the lesions at intervention was 5 cm. The average growth rate of the lesions was 0.12 cm/year, and there was a significant difference in the average growth rate of lesions ≤4 cm and those >4 cm (0.11 vs. 0.24 cm/year; p = 0.0046). CONCLUSION This series on AMLs confirms that lesions >4 cm do not require early intervention based on size alone. Appropriately selected cases of renal AML can be managed by AS.KEYWORDS: Angiomyolipoma; active surveillance; embolization; nephrectomy; nephron-sparing surgery.

Abstract
Tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) is an autosomal dominant disorder characterized by the presence of proliferative lesions throughout the body. Management of TSC is challenging because patients have a multifaceted systemic illness with prominent neurological and developmental impact as well as potentially severe kidney, heart and lung phenotypes; however, every organ system can be involved. Adequate care for patients with TSC requires a coordinated effort involving a multidisciplinary team of clinicians and support staff. This clinical practice recommendation was developed by nephrologists, urologists, paediatric radiologists, interventional radiologists, geneticists, pathologists, and patient and family group representatives, with a focus on TSC-associated kidney manifestations. Careful monitoring of kidney function and assessment of kidney structural lesions by imaging enable early interventions that can preserve kidney function through targeted approaches. Here, we summarize the current evidence and present recommendations for the multidisciplinary management of kidney involvement in TSC.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the long-term efficacy of selective arterial embolisation in renal angiomyolipoma (AML), with emphasis on tumour shrinkage, potential regrowth and the necessity of supplementary procedures. Material and methods: A retrospective review of all 58 consecutive embolisations at two institutions, between 1999 and 2018, was performed. Clinical notes, laboratory data and imaging were reviewed. RESULTS The overall complication rate was 6.8%, with no Clavien-Dindo grades III-V complications. Kidney function was unaffected by embolisation as measured by creatinine. Median radiological follow-up was 4.8 years (interquartile range [IQR]: 2.8-7.8), and median clinical follow-up was 7.5 years (IQR: 4.7-14.0). Decreasing AML size was observed in 96% of procedures. Maximal shrinkage (30% median diameter decrease; IQR: 15-44) was reached after median 2.2 years (IQR: 0.6-4.8). During follow-up, regrowth occurred in 38% of patients, and four bleeding episodes occurred in three patients with tuberous sclerosis. Growing size and/or rebleeding prompted a redo embolisation in 9% of spontaneous AML and 50% of tuberous sclerosis-associated AML. CONCLUSIONS Being a well-tolerated treatment with few complications, selective arterial embolisation renders a pronounced size-reduction in most patients with AML, and kidney function is preserved. Regrowth is common, and a radiological follow-up is necessary. Tuberous sclerosis is a risk factor for the need of reintervention.

Abstract
New clinical issues have been raised through an interval of 7 years from the previous version (2016). In this study, we update the "Clinical Practice Guidelines for tuberous sclerosis complex-associated renal angiomyolipoma" as a 2023 version under guidance by the Japanese Urological Association. The present guidelines were cooperatively prepared by the Japanese Urological Association and Japanese Society of Tuberous Sclerosis Complex; committee members belonging to one of the two societies or specializing in the treatment of this disease were selected to prepare the guidelines in accordance with the "Guidance for preparing treatment guidelines" published by Minds (2020 version). The "Introduction" consisted of four sections, "Background Questions (BQ)" consisted of four sections, "Clinical Questions (CQ)" consisted of three sections, and "Future Questions (FQ)" consisted of three sections (total: 14 sections). Concerning CQ, an agreement was confirmed through voting by the committee members based on the direction and strength of recommendation, accuracy of evidence, and recommendation comments. The present guidelines were updated based on the current evidence. We hope that the guidelines will provide guiding principles for the treatment of tuberous sclerosis complex-associated renal angiomyolipoma to many urologists, becoming a foundation for subsequent updating.

Abstract
Objectives To study safety and efficacy of selective endovascular trans‐arterial embolization (TAE) of renal angiomyolipoma (AML) in a 10‐year period at a regional tertiary referral center in Denmark. Patients and methods All 56 patients who underwent TAE of renal AML at Departments of Urology and Radiology, Copenhagen University Hospital – Rigshospitalet, Denmark, from 2009 to 2020 were included. Seven without preoperative and postoperative imaging were excluded, leaving 49 patients for analysis. From national electronic medical records, we retrieved patient characteristics, surgical data, and follow‐up data. Tumor size at the time of embolization and during follow‐up was compared using Student's paired t test. Estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) pre‐ and post‐embolization were compared using Wilcoxon rank sum test. Results We included 49 patients of whom 4 had two tumors treated in the same TAE procedure. Median age was 50 years (interquartile range [IQR]: [29–67 years]), and the median follow‐up time was 4.6 years [IQR: 3.0–6.7 years]. Post‐embolization syndrome (PES) was experienced in 27 patients, and non‐PES in 5 patients. Median length of hospital stay was 0 days [IQR, 0–1]. Postoperative Everolimus immunosuppressive treatment was offered to seven patients. Median tumor size was 6.0 cm [IQR: 4.6–7.9 cm] and was significantly reduced to 3.7 cm [IQR: 2.5–5.2 cm] after treatment (p < 0.001). Kidney function was not affected by TAE. Three deaths, not related to AML, were noted during follow‐up. Conclusion Embolization of AML was in this cohort effective to significantly reduce tumor size without serious adverse events and loss of renal function. TAE is a safe and efficacious treatment and the preferred minimally invasive treatment option of AML.

Clin Epidemiol 2021; 13:707-716.

Abstract
Background Cancer treatment can cause various long-term side effects, including those that impact ultrasound findings. During follow-up of childhood cancer survivors (CCSs), we often detected sporadic renal angiomyolipomas without histological confirmation (SAMLs), which is why we initiated this study. We compared the occurrence of SAML in CCSs to the previously reported data from a non-cancer population and correlated SAML with cancer treatment-related factors. Methods The cohort included 1098 CCSs (median age at cancer diagnosis (dg) 4.3 years) who had ultrasound follow-up (2014-2019). Of the CCSs, 525 (48%) were female, 132 (12%) had subsequent neoplasms (SNs), and 110 (10%) had genetic syndromes. CCSs were treated for lymphomas 269 (24%) and solid tumors 829 (76%). None of the CCSs had tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC). Results SAML developed in 48 (4.4%) CCSs; of these, 20 (42%) had SNs. The coincidence of SAMLs and SNs was found in CCSs with a follow-up period exceeding 20 years. The median age at SAML dg was 27.9 years (interquartile range (IQR) 22.3-34.1), and the median time to SAML dg was 22.6 years (IQR 17.4-27.6). Twenty-one (44%) CCSs developed multiple or bilateral SAMLs lesions; of these, six (12%) were in the radiotherapy field. SAML occurrence correlated with radiotherapy of the retroperitoneum (1.65-fold higher with 95% CI 0.90-3.02). The correlations with other cancer treatment factors and with female sex were less clear. Conclusion This study revealed the occurrence of SAMLs in CCSs to be 10 times higher than that in non-cancer studies. The current characteristics of CCSs with SAMLs: younger age, and more bilateral or multiple lesions are more similar to TSC associated angiomyolipoma. Moreover, we observed a coincidence of SAMLs with SNs. Our results support the hypothesis that SAML development in CCSs is not simply a late effect of therapy, and indicates other factors are involved in SAML development.

Abstract
Tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) is a rare multisystem autosomal dominant genetic disease that occurs between 1 in 6,000 and 1 in 10,000 live births. Additionally, renal angiomyolipoma is the most common form of renal disease in patients affected by TSC. Although a genetic mutation analysis of TSC is not rare, the correlation between the TSC gene mutation and renal angiomyolipoma phenotype is poorly understood. This study aims to analyze the mutation sites in 261 types of selected TSC patients. The results reveal that: (1) female patients develop more renal angiomyolipoma than male patients [p = 0.008, OR = 2.474, 95%CI (1.258–4.864)]; (2). The missense mutation of TSC1 led to a higher risk of renal angiomyolipoma [p < 0.01, OR = 15, 95%CI (2.859–78.691)], and in contrast, showed a reduced risk in patients with frameshift mutation [p = 0.03, OR = 0.252, 95%CI (0.07–0.912)]; (3). Patients with TSC2 mutations in the transcription activation domain 1 coding genes, had increased renal angiomyolipoma [p = 0.019, OR = 3.519, 95%CI (1.226–10.101)]. Therefore, our genotype-phenotype correlation study might shed light on the early monitoring and evaluation of renal angiomyolipoma in TSC patients.
