The psoas major muscle is one of the three muscle chiefs of the ilio-psoas muscle. The pathological processes concerning it are dominated by tumor lesions which are mostly malignant. The diagnostic approach is based on the clinic and the abdomino-pelvic scanner. If necessary, it will make it possible to direct a puncture and / or a biopsy. We report the observation of a 33-year-old patient admitted to the Bouaké University Hospital presenting with a mass in the left iliac fossa and an intermittent claudication of chronic evolution in whom the diagnosis of a psoas tumor was diagnosedthrough the abdomino-pelvic scanner and the pathology concluded to an angiomyolipoma.
