Core Tip |
Perivascular epithelioid cell tumor (PEComa) is rare. Herein, we present the case of a 53-year-old man with the concurrent presence of malignant PEComa in both the liver and kidney, accompanied by tuberous sclerosis complex. During treatment, the hepatic artery perfusion chemotherapy was ineffective for hepatic PEComa, while surgery remained the most effective approach. Everolimus showed an excellent efficacy during the postoperative treatment of the patient. This report provides valuable insights for the diagnosis and treatment of PEComa, paving the way for future clinical practice. |
