Peri-Renal Lymphangiomatosis: About A Case

Renal lymphangiectasia is a rare disorder of the lymphatic system responsible for cystic infiltration of the bilateral perirenal and parapyelic space. The clinical presentation is nonspecific, hence the role of multimodal imaging which can show characteristic lesions allowing a positive diagnosis. We report a case of bilateral lymphangiectasia in a 60-year-old woman presenting with chronic bilateral low back pain with glomerular syndrome, and in whom the diagnosis was made using ultrasound and cross-sectional imaging, computed tomography.

Abstract

Renal lymphangiectasia is a rare disorder of the lymphatic system responsible for cystic infiltration of the bilateral perirenal and parapyelic space. The clinical presentation is nonspecific, hence the role of multimodal imaging which can show characteristic lesions allowing a positive diagnosis. We report a case of bilateral lymphangiectasia in a 60-year-old woman presenting with chronic bilateral low back pain with glomerular syndrome, and in whom the diagnosis was made using ultrasound and cross-sectional imaging, computed tomography.
