Abstract
The computed tomographic (CT) appearance of global infarction of the kidney was not previously reported. A clinically proven case [human] is reported as well as 2 other cases with clinical and radiographic findings consistent with renal infarction. The CT appearance of global renal infarction corresponded with its conventional i.v. urographic appearance. A thin rim of perfused cortical tissue, supplied by collateral vessels, surrounds the nonperfused central renal parenchyma.This publication has 4 references indexed in Scilit:
