Varicosity of the left renal ascending lumbar communicant vein: a pitfall in CT diagnosis.

Abstract:

:An anastomosis between the left renal and left ascending lumbar veins may appear as a mass on CT scans due to a varicosity where the veins separate. Intravenous injection of contrast material reveals the vascular nature of the mass.
