Figure 1 Axial views of contrast-enhanced computed tomography demonstrating a large left renal angiomyolipoma (AML). The tumor measures 16.7 cm in maximal axial dimension and arises from the left kidney (A). Associated tumor thrombus is visualized within the left renal vein causing partial luminal occlusion (B), extending into the inferior vena cava (IVC) (C), and reaching the right atrium adjacent to the tricuspid valve, with intermittent prolapse into the right ventricle (D).
