Small (<4 cm) isolated AMLs, detected incidentally, showed a low risk of developing during long-term follow-up. Such patients may be followed conservatively by ultrasonography every 2 years. Spontaneous perinephric haemorrhage is related to the size of the lesion. When surgery is indicated (by symptoms or diagnostic doubt), a conservative procedure can be performed in most of cases.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
