Article Title: | Posttraumatic renal infarction versus tumor: A helpful angiographic finding |
Abstract: | We report a case of segmental renal infarction due to a traumatic dissecting hematoma of a renal artery branch. Some features of the cross-sectional imaging studies were atypical of infarct and suggestive of tumor. Renal arteriography demonstrated aneurysmal dilatation of an approximately 3-cm portion of a segmental renal artery, an uncommon but highly suggestive finding of traumatic arteriopathy. © 1992. |
