We report on a 56-year-old woman with carcinoma of the colon that developed in an augmentation colonocystoplasty performed 19 years earlier. Carcinoma occurring in the intestinal portion of an enterocystoplasty is very rare and has been related to contact of residual urine with the intestinal portion and chronic urinary infection.
Renal angiomyolipoma associated with regional lymph node involvement has been reported in the literature. This condition is not considered to be a sign of malignancy due to the absence of disease progression or tumor invasion. We report a case of a large renal angiomyolipoma in a 34 year-old female patient who was submitted to left radical nephrectomy and regional lymphadenectomy. Two nodes revealed angiomyolipomatous growth.
