  • Title: Congenital multicystic kidney.
    Author: Kyaw MM, Koehler PR.
    Journal: Perspect Nephrol Hypertens; 1976; 4():115-23. PubMed ID: 1264563.
    Abstract:
    By employing the three basic diagnostic modalities of uroradiology--intravenous urography, retrograde pyelography, angiography--an accurate radiological diagnosis can be made. Since congenital multicystic disease by definition is a nonfunctioning dysplastic kidney with an atretic or absent ureter and absent renal vasculature, these diagnostic methods are tailored precisely to demonstrate the specific characteristic functional and pathological features of congenital multicystic kidney disease. We find no function on intravenous urography, hypoplastic atretic ureter on retrograde pyelography, and an absent or hypoplastic renal artery indicated on angiography.
