  • Title: [Roentgenographic aspects of subcapsular renal hematomas (author's transl)].
    Author: Lemaitre G, Villoutreix H.
    Journal: J Radiol Electrol Med Nucl; 1975 Mar; 56(3):211-8. PubMed ID: 1151920.
    Abstract:
    About four cases, the authors exhibit roentgenographic features of subcapsular hematomas. They particularly emphasize the interest of nephrotomography and angiography two provide the typical signs; i.e.: flattening of the lacteral border of the renal parenchyma, absence of acute edges between normal renal outline and flattened portion, and at last, displaced capsular artery and/or renal capsule itself. Between flattening of kidney and capsular artery or capsule, one may individualize a mass of soft tissue density, convex or biconvex, corresponding to the hematomas. Particular attention is required concerning differential diagnosis with renal cyst, and possibility of a small neoplasm, sometimes indetectable at angiography, as a cause of "spontaneous" subcapsular hematoma.
