    Computed tomographic (CT) scans reveal specific findings for uriniferous pseudocyst (UP). Key indicators include perirenal space abnormalities and hydronephrosis, aiding diagnosis.

    Area of Science:

    • Radiology
    • Urology
    • Medical Imaging

    Background:

    • Uriniferous pseudocyst (UP) is an uncommon condition.
    • Accurate diagnosis is crucial for patient management.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To retrospectively analyze computed tomographic (CT) findings in patients with confirmed uriniferous pseudocyst (UP).
    • To identify characteristic CT features that aid in the diagnosis of UP.

    Main Methods:

    • Retrospective analysis of CT scans from nine patients with proved UP.
    • Detailed examination of imaging features including location, attenuation, contrast enhancement, and associated findings.

    Main Results:

    • CT scans showed perirenal space tumefaction (7/9 patients) or extraperirenal tumefaction (2/9 patients).

  • Cystlike uniformity of attenuation was observed in all patients.
  • Contrast-opacified urine extravasation into the UP was seen in 3 patients.
  • Hydronephrosis was present in all nine patients.
  • Anterior and superior displacement of the kidney was noted in 7 patients.

    • Conclusions:

    • CT findings for UP are specific, including perirenal abnormalities and hydronephrosis.
    • Knowledge of UP causes, patient history, and clinical presentation is essential for accurate CT differential diagnosis.
