The sections show a tumour composed of spindle cells in a fascicular arrangement with scant adipose tissue and prominent muscular blood vessels.  Rare nuclear enlargement is seen. No significant nuclear atypia is appreciated. Mitotic activity is not apparent. No renal parenchyma is identified.
===Epithelioid===
Comment:
Epithelioid change in angiomyolipoma can be associated with aggressive behaviour; follow-up is recommended.

The sections show a tumour composed of spindle cells in a fasicular arrangement with scant adipose tissue and prominent muscular blood vessels. Rare nuclear enlargement is seen. No signficant nuclear atypia is appreciated. Mitotic activity is not apparent. No renal parenchyma is identified.
The sections show a tumour composed of spindle cells in a fascicular arrangement with abundant adipose tissue and prominent muscular blood vessels. A focal epithelioid subcomponent is present and has moderate atypia. Mitotic activity is not readily apparent. The epithelioid component is completely removed in the plane-of-section.
