Renal arteriovenous malformations may have varied clinical and radiographic appearances. Often, it remains difficult to distinguish these lesions from renal cell carcinomas to tailor the most appropriate diagnostic evaluation and therapy. We have encountered 6 patients with renal arteriovenous malformations that masqueraded as renal cell carcinomas and describe their clinical presentation and management.
