dc.description.abstract | Renal lymphangiectasia is very rare benign lymphatic malformation of renal lymphatics, characterized by cystic dilatation of perirenal, peripelvic, or intrarenal lymphatic vessels. One of the rare mimickers of hyd- ronephrosis and cystic renal lesions on the imaging findings. We report a case-patient with unilateral right renal lymphangiectasia with flank pain and arterial hy- pertension. The ultrasound examination revealed right kidney hydronephorosis. The renal lymphangiectasia was identified on contrast-enhanced computed tomogra- phy scan. The patient was managed conservatively with antihypertensive drugs. The report also contains a re- view of the literature on the pathophysiology of renal lymphangiectasia, clinical presentation, imaging findings, differentials, complications and treatment. | en_US |
