  • Title: Ultrasonography and needle aspiration in diagnosis of xanthogranulomatous pyelonephritis.
    Author: Sease WC, Elyaderani MK, Belis JA.
    Journal: Urology; 1987 Feb; 29(2):231-5. PubMed ID: 3544457.
    Abstract:
    Xanthogranulomatous pyelonephritis may present as a renal mass which can be difficult to differentiate from a hypovascular renal tumor by intravenous pyelography or selective renal angiography. Four patients are described in whom ultrasonography with or without fine-needle aspiration suggested or confirmed the diagnosis of xanthogranulomatous pyelonephritis.
