Most people with benign angiomyolipomas do not show signs or have symptoms. However, symptoms can occur if the dilated blood vessels in an angiomyolipoma rupture; this is called a retroperitoneal hemorrhage. This can cause pain in the back, nausea and vomiting. Some long-term effects are anemia, hypertension, and chronic kidney disease.

They are often surrounded by an outer surface (fibrous sheath of connective tissue) or stay contained within the epithelium. Common examples of benign tumors include moles and uterine fibroids.
This stage accounts for 17% of kidney cancers and 69% of people are expected to live 5 years with this progression of kidney cancer. •Stage 4, the kidney tumour has spread to a distant organ or lymph node. 16% of kidney cancers are progressed to this stage and of those people, 12% of them are expected to live 5 years.

An H&E stain of tissue from a chromophobe renal cell carcinoma, the second-most common cancer associated with BHD. People over 20 years of age with BHD have an increased risk of developing slow-growing kidney tumors (chromophobe renal carcinoma and renal oncocytoma), kidney cysts, and possibly tumors in other organs and tissues.
