In some cases, individuals with renal angiomyolipoma may be able to feel a palpable mass in their abdomen. This mass is typically firm, non-tender, and located near the affected kidney. The presence of a palpable mass could indicate that the angiomyolipoma has grown large enough to be felt through the abdominal wall.
A palpable mass should always be evaluated by a healthcare professional. While not all masses are indicative of a serious condition, it is important to rule out renal angiomyolipoma or other potential causes to ensure proper treatment and management. (4)
