Description
  • Radiopaedia case ID: 90643
  • Image ID: 55279230
  • Image stack position: 44/97
  • Plane projection: Axial
  • Aux modality: C+ portal venous phase
  • Modality: CT
  • System: Urogenital
  • Findings: Findings: Severe right sided hydronephrosis, with a transition point at the pelviuretericjunction is grossly stable. There is cortical atrophy consistent with longstranding obstruction with marked right sided perinephric fat stranding whichhas progressed since prior studies suggesting either urine leak or fatstranding secondary to superadded right sided upper renal tract infection. Thereare no calculi detected. The fat stranding extends into the rightretroperitoneum inferiorly with no peripherally enhancing collection orabdominal free fluid. Conclusion: Severe right sided hydronephrosis with a transition point at the pelviureteric junction consistent with long standing pelviureteric obstruction. Perinephric fat stranding on the right with associated right sided upper renal tract urothelial thickening and hyperenhancement is most in keeping with superadded infection. Urine leak due to perforation is a less likely cause of the progression of fat stranding.
