angiomyolipoma, clear-cell "sugar" tumour (CCST), lymphangioleiomyomatosis, and, clear-cell myomelanocytic tumour of ligamentum teres/falciform ligament. abdominopelvic sarcoma of perivascular epitheloid cells [2] primary extrapulmonary "sugar" tumour [2] Thus, it has been advocated that the above could be classified PEComas.

Renal angiomyolipomas (AMLs) may require embolization or cauterization for control of bleeding, a complication that is thought to be more common when tumor diameter exceeds 4 cm. [119] The extent of aneurysmal change may determine bleeding risk. Serial abdominal imaging should be performed to assess AML size at 6- to 12-month intervals, at ...
Kidney complications such as angiomyolipoma and cysts are common and more frequent in females than males and in TSC2 than TSC1. Renal cell carcinoma is uncommon. Lymphangioleiomyomatosis is only a risk for females with angiomyolipomas. [38] In the brain, the subependymal nodules occasionally degenerate to subependymal giant cell astrocytomas.
The renal condition should not be confused with other conditions which are Müllerian duct anomalies, such as Herlyn-Werner-Wunderlich syndrome. Some sources refer to double uters-hemivagina-renal agenesis as simply Wunderlich syndrome, but Herlyn-Werner-Wunderlich is a better term to distinguish the two.
Post-operatively, the presence of renin granules in pathology specimens as well as immunohistochemical analyses could help differentiating this tumor from other primary renal tumors such as hemangiopericytoma, glomus tumor, metanephric adenoma, epithelioid angiomyolipoma, Wilms tumor, solitary fibrous tumor, and some epithelial neoplasms.
