Giant hepatic angiomyolipoma mimicking hepatocellular carcinoma [Hepatoselüler kanseri taklit eden dev hepatik anjiyomiyolipom]

Angiomyolipomas (AMLs) are a benign mesenchymal tumor that typically occurs in the kidney and very rare in the liver. Even though these tumors can be diagnosed with imaging tecniques, diagnosis mainly relies on pathological findings. Because AMLs can mimic other hepatic tumors such as hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) on radiologic images due to some of the features. We presented a giant hepatic AML case which mimicing hepatocellular carcinoma in imaging techniques. We suspected from hepatocellular carcinoma according to radiologic images, but biopsy result was hepatic angiomyolipoma. There are potential risks such as spontaneous rupture and malignant transformation of these tumors. The effective therapy of hepatic AML is surgical resection.
