Data on Science Published by Researchers at Medical College

2012 DEC 7 (NewsRx) -- By a News Reporter-Staff News Editor at Health & Medicine Week -- Data detailed on Science have been presented. According to news reporting originating from Karnataka, India, by NewsRx correspondents, research stated, "We report a case of cutaneous angiomyolipoma (AML) found on the anterior abdominal wall of a 3-year-old female child. Histologic examination showed a well-circumscribed nodule in the dermis composed of an intimate mixture of convoluted thick-walled blood vessels, smooth muscle, and mature fat."

Our news editors obtained a quote from the research from Medical College, "This lesion differs from renal AML in terms of a lack of association with tuberous sclerosis, circumscription, absence of epithelioid cells, and male predominance. We concluded that the unique features of this lesion distinguish it from other lesions such as angiomyoma, angiolipoma, myolipoma, haemangioma, and other mixed mesenchymal tumors."

According to the news editors, the research concluded: "This case report suggests that the features considered diagnostic of AML can occur in extrarenal sites and, therefore, this diagnosis cannot be excluded on the basis of site alone."
