  • Title: Hydronephrosis of the lower pole of the duplex kidney: another renal pseudotumor.
    Author: Nusbacher N, Bryk D.
    Journal: AJR Am J Roentgenol; 1978 May; 130(5):967-9. PubMed ID: 417602.
    Abstract:
    Obstruction and reflux occur fairly commonly in the duplex kidney. Although obstruction with attendant hydronephrosis is more frequently seen in the upper pole of a duplex system, a similar process involving the lower pole should be considered in the differential diagnosis of renal mass lesions. Four cases are described in which lower pole hydronephrosis simulated neoplasm.
