“…Accurate preoperative diagnosis as AML allowed the patient and surgeon to come to an informed decision and to undergo the appropriate treatment of minimally invasive resection. Damaskos et al reported the first laparoscopic resection of hepatic AML in 2017, and our case further demonstrates the safety and utility of this approach [11]. In the absence of metastatic lesions, most reports support good surgical outcomes and long-term survival for hepatic AML patients [2, 3].…”

Introduction. Benign tumors of the liver are rare. Liver angiomyolipoma is a rare benign mesenchymal tumor that usually occurs in adult female patients. There are four types of hepatic angiomyolipoma: (I) hybrid; (II) myoma type; (III) lipoma type; and (IV) hemangioma type. Case outline. We present a 44-year-old symptomless female, admitted to Department of Surgery due to the lesion of the third segment of liver, measuring 35 ? 30 ? 15 mm. Tumor was excised totally, and the margins of resection were clean. The differential diagnosis based on radiological findings might be difficult. There are many liver disorders with fatty components, both benign and malignant, e.g., hepatic steatosis, adenoma, lipoma, hepatocellular carcinoma or liposarcoma. Conclusion. Its prognosis is good and the recommended treatment is surgical resection.
