Abstract
We present two cases of hepatic angiomyolipoma in which the size and intern
al composition of the tumor changed during the course of follow-up study. T
he tissue elements composing the tumor are thought to grow or regress indep
endently during the disease's clinical course. Radiologists should be aware
that hepatic angiomyolipoma can change in size and internal composition du
ring its natural course.
