Angiomyolipoma (AML) is classified as a perivascular epithelioid cell neoplasm, mostly occurring in the kidney. Twenty percent of patients with renal AML have tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) caused by germline variation in theTSC1orTSC2gene. In this paper, we report the first case of renal AML harboring somatic missense mutations of theTSC2gene and concomitant copy-neutral loss of heterozygosity (CN-LOH). The patient presented with solitary renal AML and pulmonary lymphangiomyomatosis and without other findings suggestive of TSC. Exome sequencing analysis of the renal AML, however, identified a pathogenic somatic missense mutation in theTSC2gene (NM_000548:c.5228G>A:p. R1743Q), although no other somatic mutation was detected. Furthermore, no germline mutation inTSC1orTSC2was detected. Interestingly, the mutant allele ratio was too high for a somatic heterozygous mutation without loss of heterozygosity (LOH). Furthermore, no copy number variation was detected around theTSC2locus (16p13.3). To clarify the allelic status, we analyzed heterozygous single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in chromosome 16. In these SNPs, an unbalanced allele ratio was accumulated inside the 16p13.3 region. These results suggested copy-neutral LOH (CN-LOH). Consequently, we concluded that the missense mutation of theTSC2gene and CN-LOH of theTSC2locus caused renal AML.
