Summary
Hepatic epithelioid angiomyolipoma (HEAML) is a rare liver tumor that can mimic other conditions. Accurate diagnosis relies on integrating imaging findings with immunohistochemical analysis for effective patient management.
Area of Science:
- Oncology
- Pathology
- Radiology
Background:
- Hepatic epithelioid angiomyolipoma (HEAML) is a rare mesenchymal tumor.
- It belongs to the perivascular epithelioid cell tumor (PEComa) family.
- HEAML's hypervascularity and nonspecific imaging features challenge preoperative diagnosis, mimicking lesions like hepatocellular carcinoma.
