“…The key in diagnostic imaging is still the detection of fat components in low-fat AML or epithelioid AML (8)(9)(10). CCSTs are mainly benign and manifest as peripheral and smooth-edged quasi-circular nodules, without cavities or calcification, which may be markedly enhanced (11,12). Malignant CCSTs are manifested as multi-nodules or masses, with occasional calcification and metastasis to the liver, adrenal gland or brain (13).…”

Abstract. Perivascular epithelioid cell neoplasm (PEComa) is a rare type of tumor, and primary retroperitoneal PEComa is rarer still. The present report discusses the case of a 51-year-old woman who was admitted to hospital following stiffness and discomfort in the upper right abdomen for longer than one month. Computed tomography identified a soft tissue mass in the rear right kidney, accompanied by clear cystic degeneration and bleeding. The borderline between the mass and the right kidney was not distinct. An enhanced scan revealed that the solid section of the mass was progressively enhanced. Following excision of the mass and the affected right kidney, the patient was pathologically diagnosed with retroperitoneal PEComa involving the right kidney. Short-term reexamination did not detect any recurrence.

“…There is no specific lobar distribution [9]. One of the characteristics of sugar cell tumors on contrast-enhanced CT scans is the intense post-contrast enhancement that appears to be related to its rich vascular stroma [11].…”

“…Eine räumliche Beziehung zum Bronchialsystem oder Lungengefäßen besteht nicht. Computertomographisch fällt ein ausgeprägtes Kontrastmittel-Enhancement auf, was auf das spezielle Gefäßmuster der Sugar-Tumoren mit dilatierten sinusoidalen Gefäßräumen zurückzuführen ist [12]. Eine ätiologische Zuordnung ist mit bildgebenden Verfahren jedoch nicht möglich.…”

Clear cell tumors of the lung are commonly primary, clear-cell, bronchial carcinomas or metastasis of a renal cell carcinoma. Compared to this, pulmonary sugar tumor is a rare entity. A large intracellular content of glycogen and immunohistochemical procedures lead to diagnosis. The demonstration of the premelanosomal protein HMB-45 is considered as proof, but this is not airtight. We present a case of metachronic, benign, and HMB-45-negative sugar tumor of the lung after hypernephroma and give a review of the literature.
