Cortical renal leiomyoma with extension to renal pelvis

S F Ko et al. Abdom Imaging. 1994 Jan-Feb.

Abstract

We describe a case of renal leiomyoma in a 21-year-old woman who presented with flank pain and hematuria. Urographic and computed tomographic (CT) studies revealed a large right renal mass with polypoid outgrowth protruding into the renal pelvis. Cortical renal leiomyoma with this radiographic manifestation is extremely rare.
