The most common cause of non-traumatic retroperitoneal renal bleeding is angiomyolipoma and spontaneous hemorrhage of angiomyolipoma can be life-threatening. Treatment is recommended if angiomyolipoma has bled or it is larger than 4 cm. There are endovascular and surgical treatment options. Endovascular selective embolization is the primary preferred minimally invasive treatment method in angiomyolipoma bleeding. In this case, we aimed to discuss an adult patient, who had seizures which the patient thought to be related to motorcycle accident history, presenting with acute angiomyolipoma bleeding treated with endovascular selective embolization and subsequently diagnosed with tuberous sclerosis.Read More
