Zusammenfassung

Purpose: Angiomyolipomas are rare benign renal tumors. To date only few studies have been published regarding the prevalence of sporadic angiomyolipomas that are not associated with genetic diseases such as tuberous sclerosis. Our study aimed to calculate the prevalence and analyze the natural history of sporadic angiomyolipoma in a large patient population. Material and methods: Abdominal ultrasound analyses of 61,389 patients (49.7% women; 50.3% men) were consecutively collected using a PC-based, standardized documentation system (GE Healthcare Technologies, ViewPoint Bildverarbeitung GmbH, Weßling, Germany) f…
