SPECIFIC NEPHROCALCINOSIS OF CHRONIC GLOMERULONEPHRITIS

Abstract
Nephrocalcinosis associated with chronic glomerulonephritis is rare. Only 7 documented cases have been reported in the English language literature. The detection of 2 cases in 2 years in a relatively small radiology practice indicates that it is considerably more common than the literature suggests. The roentgen features are described and 2 additional cases are presented.
