Imaging Findings of Perirenal Epithelioid Angiomyolipoma Mimicking a Malignant Retroperitoneal Tumor: A Case Report with Imaging Findings

2016 
Epithelioid angiomyolipoma (EAML) is an uncommon variant type of angiomyolipoma (AML), occurring primarily in the kidney and characterized by a distinct entity with a possibility of metastatic transformation and distant spread (1, 2).
