    Abstract We present imaging findings (ultrasound, computed tomography, and magnetic resonance imaging) of eight patients with hepatic angiomyolipoma (HAML). The lesions were solitary in seven patients, and one patient had multiple tumors ( n = 11). Angiomyolipoma, even though a rare liver tumor, should be included in the differential diagnosis in cases of highly vascularized lesion containing a significant amount of fat. Suggestion of the diagnosis of HAML might be helpful for the pathologist in the selection of the typical histochemical staining of the tumor, allowing accurate diagnosis, which, in turn, determines the implementation of appropriate therapeutic intervention.
