Pancake Kidney With Obstructed Moiety: A Rare Renal Fusion Anomaly
Renal fusion abnormalities are rare. Even more rare is pancake kidney. We present a case of a 28-year-old male with symptomatic obstruction of a non-functioning moiety of a pancake kidney. He underwent ureterectomy with a finding of only atretic renal parenchyma at exploration. He recovered well and had resolution of his pain at 3-month follow-up.
متن کاملAssessment of the maximum uptake time of 99mTc-DMSA in renal scintigraphy in rat
Introduction:The optimal imaging time of a radionuclide scintigraphy is the time at which the organ of interest has the maximum uptake of the injected radionuclide. This study was performed to investigate the maximum uptake time of 99mTc-DMSA in rat renal scan. Methods: Renal scintigraphy was performed with 3 mCi of 99mTc-DMSA. Planar ima...
متن کاملThe comparison between ultrasonography and 99mTc-DMSA renal scan in estimation of kidney size
Introduction: Renal length measurement is an important diagnostic clue in several urinary tract abnormalities. Although ultra sonography is the most frequent used modality for renal size estimation, renal diameter assessment by 99mTc-DMSA scintigraphy is of great value. By now, pointing to the renal size in the 99mTc-DMSA scintigraphy report has not been recommended by gui...
متن کاملUnilateral renal agenesis revealed by hydronephrosis of contralateral kidney and explored by 99mTc-DMSA and 99mTc-DTPA scintigraphy
Renal scintigraphy is a physio-functional exploration permitting the exploration and assertion of unilateral renal agenesis. We report the case of a patient followed for a right hydronephrosis having revealed an agenesis of the contralateral kidney confirmed by 99mTc-DMSA scintigraphy. Also 99mTc-DTPA scintigraphy allowed the evaluation of the permeability of the urinary tract of the single rig...
