Objectives: To report the 7th case of pararenal angiomyolipoma published in the world literature and to review the international bibliography.
Methods: We report the case of a 46-year-old female with history of renal colic and a complex mass on radiological tests.
Results/conclusions: Extrarenal retroperitoneal angiomyolipoma is a rare pathology with no more than 7 published cases. The diagnostic difficulty and radiological similarities with liposarcoma make surgery the treatment of choice.

Unlabelled: Renal angiomyolipoma is an uncommon benign tumor that mostly affects adults and is highly associated with tuberous sclerosis. It's very uncommon for it to affect adolescents. In this case, a 17-year-old male with abdominal pain and distension was diagnosed with sporadic giant renal angiomyolipoma.

Angiomyolipoma is a benign mesenchymal tumour of kidney that consists of adipose tissue, muscle cells and blood vessels. Renal angiomyolipomas represent almost one percent of all renal tumours. We reported a case of a 50-year-old woman complaining of mild abdominal discomfort with no other symptoms and no remarkable medical history.

Article Synopsis
- Retroperitoneal hemorrhage, especially from adrenal or renal tumors, can manifest in vague ways during pregnancy, making diagnosis challenging without known risk factors.* -
- Three cases of pregnant women in their third trimester showed these hemorrhages, with one having adrenal bleeding and two with renal tumor bleeding, all presenting unexpectedly without prior health issues.* -
- Quick medical response and teamwork led to successful outcomes for the mothers, and the only patient with adrenal hemorrhage had a healthy baby, while the others faced fetal loss.*

Angiomyolipomas are benign mesenchymal lesions often diagnosed incidentally, composed of adipose tissue, dysmorphic blood vessels, and smooth muscle. They are usually unilateral and symptomatic only when larger than 4 centimeters, posing a risk of spontaneous rupture and severe retroperitoneal hemorrhage. Treatment varies from conservative management to selective embolization or nephrectomy, depending on tumor size and patient condition.

With the continuous development of robot-assisted technology, Robot-assisted Laparoscopic Partial Nephrectomy (RALPN) has gradually become an optional method for the treatment of Hemorrhage secondary to angiomyolipoma (HSA). However, there are rare clinical reports of the primary RALPN for HSA. Therefore, this research aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of primary RALPN for HSA.
