Title: Renal pelvis haemangioma demonstrated by MSCT urography with ureteral compression and 3D reconstruction. Author: Coulier B, Lefebvre Y, Petein M. Journal: JBR-BTR; 2005; 88(4):187-9. PubMed ID: 16176076. Abstract: A rare case of renal haemangioma of the renal pelvis is reported. The 40-year-old patient classically presented with recurrent hematuria. The small pyelic tumour was clearly delineated by msCT urography obtained during compression of the uretera with rubber balloons classically used during IVP In the absence of a definite histological diagnosis--pyeloscopy being unsuccessful--the patient underwent radical nephrectomy. The literature concerning renal haemangioma is briefly reviewed and the role of compression assisted msCT urography as a possible method for the detection of small pyelocaliceal tumours is emphasized.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
