“…The key in diagnostic imaging is still the detection of fat components in low-fat AML or epithelioid AML (8)(9)(10). CCSTs are mainly benign and manifest as peripheral and smooth-edged quasi-circular nodules, without cavities or calcification, which may be markedly enhanced (11,12). Malignant CCSTs are manifested as multi-nodules or masses, with occasional calcification and metastasis to the liver, adrenal gland or brain (13).…”

Computertomographisch fällt ein ausgeprägtes Kontrastmittel-Enhancement auf, was auf das spezielle Gefäßmuster der Sugar-Tumoren mit dilatierten sinusoidalen Gefäßräumen zurückzuführen ist [12]. Eine ätiologische Zuordnung ist mit bildgebenden Verfahren jedoch nicht möglich.…”
