Fig. 2

A 34-year-old woman with a TSC-AML. Contrast-enhanced CT shows multiple left renal AMLs. The tumor in the ventral lateral position in the left kidney contains a microaneurysm, 11 mm in diameter (a) (white arrows). Left renal angiography before embolization shows tumor stain and several microaneurysms (white arrows). Normal left renal parenchyma is compressed by the embolized tumor (b). Embolized tumor stain and microaneurysms disappear after embolization using microspheres, absolute ethanol, and microcoils. Normal renal parenchyma is retained, and a residual untreated tumor is shown (white arrows) (c). Contrast-enhanced CT 2 years after TAE shows a reduction in tumor volume and no residual aneurysm (d)
