Abstract:
We present two cases of hepatic angiomyolipoma. Histologic analysis showed that mature adipose tissue occupied 79.0% of the area on the largest cut surface in the first case and 40.2% in the second case. We suggest that the difference in the ratio of adipose tissue volume to its distribution is reflected on diagnostic images.
