A member asked:
Recent us showed 1cm suspected angiomyolipoma, what causes them as scan 1 year ago showed it wasn't there?

It depends: It really depends on where it is. The tumor you describe is a benign lesion. They can grow, and it is possible that you may never get another one. It should be evaluated by a surgeon. Have your doctor refer you to one.
