Objective To explore CT manifestations of perivascular epithelioid cell tumor(PEComa)of liver and kidney.Methods Totally 18 hepatic PEComa and 5 renal PEComa confirmed by surgical pathology were retrospectively enrolled,and the preoperative CT manifestations were explored.Results Single lesion of liver or kidney was found in all 23 cases,and the main CT manifestations included low or slightly low density lesion(23/23,100％),with irregular morphology(16/23,69.57％),clear boundaries(17/23,73.91％),non-envelope(21/23,91.30％)and enhancement after administration of contrast agents(21/23,91.30％).Among 18 cases of liver PEComa,most lesions(13/18,72.22％)presented as uniform density,while some(5/18,27.88％)presented as non-uniform density lesions often contained with fat components(5/5,100％)and thickened blood vessels(4/5,80.00％)but rare hemorrhagic necrosis(1/5,20.00％)nor calcification(0/5,0).Fast in and fast out of contrast agents were observed in 16(16/18,88.89％)lesions.Uneven density and internal fat components were found in all 5(5/5,100％)renal PEComa,which rarely with hemorrhagic necrosis(1/5,20.00％),blood vessels orientation(1/5,20.00％)and calcification(0/5,0).After enhancement,fast in and fast out,progressive enhancement and non-enhancement was observed in 2(2/5,40.00％),1(1/5,20.00％)and 2(2/5,40.00％)cases,respectively.Conclusion CT manifestations of PEComa in liver and kidney had certain characteristics.
