Renal angiomyoadenomatous tumour is a rare, recently describedneoplasm with a distinctive histological appearance. Althoughreported in the pathology literature, to our knowledge, no priorreports have described its imaging appearance. We describe thecomputed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging featuresof an incidentally detected renal angiomyoadenomatous tumourthat appeared as a well-marginated, solid T2-hypointense enhancing mass, in a 50-year-old woman. It is indistinguishable from a variety of benign and malignant renal neoplasms.
