Angiomyolipoma of the Uterus

Anjiyomiyolipom (AML) yağ dokusu, düz kas hücreleri ve anormal kan damarlarının değişken karışımından oluşan bir mezenkimal tümördür. Uterusta, sadece birkaç vaka bildirilmiştir. Biz tuberoz skleroz (TS) olmadan bir uterin AML tanımladık. Uterus anjiomiyomatöz lezyonların kliniği spesifik değildir. Anjiyomiyolipom tanısı ultrasonografik ve / veya bilgisayarlı tomografi (BT) ile konulabilir. Abdominopelvik ultrasonda alt karında kitle ve disfonksiyonel uterin kanaması olan hastaların ayırıcı tanısında AML dikkate alınmalıdır

Angiomyolipoma of the Uterus

Angiomyolipoma (AML) is a mesenchymal neoplasm composed of a variable mixture of adipose tissue, smooth muscle cells, and anomalous blood vessels. In the uterus, only a few cases have been reported. We described a uterine AML without evidence of tuberous sclerosus (TS). The clinical presentations of uterine angiomyomatous lesions are nonspecific. The diagnosis of angiomyolipoma can be established with ultrasound and/or computed tomography (CT). The patients whose lower abdomen mass in the abdominopelvic ultrasound and dysfunctional uterine bleeding should be considered AML in the differential diagnosis.
