Mayo Clinic Laboratory and Pathology Research Roundup: September 16

The research roundup provides an overview of the past week’s research from Mayo Clinic Laboratories consultants, including featured abstracts and a complete list of published studies and reviews.
Featured Abstract
Renal Leiomyoma
In the kidney, leiomyomas and leiomyosarcomas can occur. Renal smooth-muscle tumors can arise in both men and women. In addition, similar-appearing tumors, particularly in a capsular location with HMB45 immunopositivity, are now considered to be leiomyomatous angiomyolipomas. Via Mayo Clinic Proceedings.
