Kidney lower pole pelvicaliceal anatomy: comparative analysis between intravenous urogram and three-dimensional helical computed tomography.

abstract：:In 2005 we reported in this journal the treatment of cystic nephroma, a rare but presumed benign renal tumor, with percutaneous resection. Initial follow-up confirmed removal of the intra-pelvic portion of the cystic nephroma and persistence of the unresected intra-parenchymal portion. Surveillance with computed tomog...
