Ultrasonographically demonstrated nutcracker phenomenon: alternative to angiography
Abstract
We report on a child with nutcracker phenomenon, which is a possible cause of intermittent gross haematuria of unknown origin. Early serial ultrasound examinations can demonstrate the lesions. The merits and demerits of conventional angiographic imaging are also discussed.
