What is left renal angiomyolipoma?

Left renal angiomyolipoma is a benign tumor.

The etiology of renal angiomyolipoma is still unclear. It may be related to X chromosome inactivation, mutation and gene heterozygosity loss. It grows slowly and has no obvious clinical symptoms. When the tumor is progressive, it can destroy the normal structure and tissue of the kidney, such as hematuria, waist and abdominal pain. In severe cases, it can also lead to loss of renal function and endanger life and health.

The prognosis of patients with regular treatment is good, while the prognosis of patients with tumor rupture and bleeding is poor.
