Overview
Surgery is not the first-line treatment option for patients with angiomyolipoma. Transcatheter arterial embolization is usually reserved for patients with complicated disease.[1]
Surgery
Angiomyolipoma do not normally require surgery unless there is life-threatening bleeding.
Transcatheter Arterial Embolization
- Proximal Embolization
- These are appropriate for the occlusion of a large lumen without distal migration
- Distal Embolization
- These are appropriate for the occlusion of a large lumen with distal migration
- Palliative Embolization
- Embolization in patients with end-stage renal disease

Partial Nephrectomy
Larger AMLs, that have been symptomatic, can be electively resected with a partial nephrectomy.
