    Angiomyolipoma can present with varied ultrasound patterns, not just the typical echogenic mass. This finding is not exclusive to angiomyolipoma, as some renal cell carcinomas show similar echodense patterns.

    Area of Science:

    • Radiology
    • Medical Imaging
    • Oncology

    Background:

    • Angiomyolipoma diagnosis often relies on characteristic ultrasound findings.
    • Previous reports highlighted the highly echogenic intrarenal mass as a key sonographic feature.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To investigate the spectrum of sonographic patterns associated with angiomyolipoma.
    • To determine the specificity of the echodense pattern for angiomyolipoma diagnosis.

    Main Methods:

    • Retrospective review of 10 angiomyolipoma cases with available ultrasound and pathology findings.
    • Correlation with computed tomography (CT) findings when available.
    • Review of 42 renal cell carcinoma cases with available ultrasound to assess pattern specificity.

    Main Results:

    • Beyond the typical echodense pattern (6 cases), angiomyolipoma exhibited mixed (2 cases) and low sonodense (2 cases) patterns.
    • Two cases of renal cell carcinoma displayed echodense patterns indistinguishable from angiomyolipoma.

    Conclusions:

    • A spectrum of ultrasonic findings exists for angiomyolipoma.
    • The echodense intrarenal mass, while suggestive, is not pathognomonic for angiomyolipoma.
