Abstract
An abnormal accumulation of radionuclide was identified within the right juxtadiaphragmatic and juxtahepatic spaces during Ga-67 citrate scintigraphy in a post-pyeloplasty patient. Its mode of presentation, the recent pyeloplasty and the known biologic distribution of Ga suggested that it represented Ga-67 concentration within a postoperatively created urinoma. Diagnosis was confirmed by excretory urography and laparotomy.This publication has 3 references indexed in Scilit:
