Abstract :
Angiomyolipoma is a benign clonal neoplasm with a prevalence of 0.13% when screened by ultrasonography. Pheochromocytoma is the causative factor of hypertension in less than 1% of the hypertensive population. Each of these neoplasms may be accompanied by other tumors; however, to best of our knowledge, concomitant angiomyolipoma and pheochromocytoma has not been reported yet and our report is the first in this matter.
