Displaced renal lobe simulating tumour

N Jensen, N P Mortensen

    Acta Radiologica: Diagnosis
    |January 1, 1978
    PubMed
    Summary
    This summary is machine-generated.

    Renal pseudotumours can mimic kidney masses on imaging. Angiography and urography show a mass but lack tumor vessels, aiding diagnosis.

    Area of Science:

    • Radiology
    • Urology
    • Nephrology

    Background:

    • Renal pseudotumours are rare entities that can present as renal masses.
    • Accurate diagnosis is crucial to differentiate from malignant renal tumors.

    Observation:

    • Three cases of renal pseudotumour are presented with detailed radiographic appearances.
    • Urography demonstrated a distinct mass within the kidney.
    • Angiography showed displacement of interlobar arteries without tumor vessels.

    Findings:

    • The nephrographic effect was uniform between the pseudotumour and normal renal parenchyma.
    • Nephroscintigraphy was likely to be normal, further supporting a benign etiology.
    • Key differential diagnoses for renal masses were discussed.

    Implications:

    • Radiographic findings, particularly the absence of tumor vessels and uniform nephrogram, are key to diagnosing renal pseudotumours.
    • These imaging characteristics help distinguish pseudotumours from actual renal neoplasms.
    • Understanding these imaging patterns is vital for urologists and radiologists in patient management.
