Abstract
GIMENO ARGENTE, V. et al. Conservative surgery of bilateral renal angiomyolipoma during pregnancy. Actas Urol Esp [online]. 2006, vol.30, n.6, pp.633-637. ISSN 0210-4806.
The existence of bilateral renal angiomyolipoma (AML) is fairly infrequent, especially when not associated with such syndromes as tuberous sclerosis or linfangioleimiomatosis. Here we present the case of a 40-year-old woman who was accidentally diagnosed at week 33rd of gestation by an ultrasound, of bilateral renal AML and that could be treated with kidney sparing conservative treatment. We have also done a review of the literature focusing on its management and its relationship with pregnancy.
Keywords : Bilateral renal angiomyolipoma; Pregnancy; Conservative surgery.
