Abstrakt: Perivascular epithelioid cell tumors (PEComas) are a group of rare mesenchymal tumors, which demonstrate varied imaging appearances and treatment options. These tumors may arise de novo or in the setting of systemic disorders, such as tuberous sclerosis. Some PEComas are benign and easily resected while others may represent systemic or metastatic disease with limited therapeutic options. The purpose of this review is to introduce the topic of perivascular epithelioid cell tumors and the most common tumors within the PEComa family as well as discuss the epidemiology, morphology, radiographic appearance, and treatment options of these rare tumors.
