Tuberous sclerosis complex has several renal manifestations like angiomyolipomas. We report a case of a giant AML and discuss its diagnosis and treatment. A 42-year-old woman was admitted to emergency department due to flank pain and hematuria. The patient had history of mental retardation and epilepsy. Abdominal CT without contrast medium revealed a large mass with a fat/blood content inside. On those findings, we diagnosed the patient a bleeding giant AML. We performed selective embolization of the bleeding source with subsequent conservative management. TSC-associated AMLs occur more frequently as multiple lesions and grow to larger size than idiopathic AML.
