Renal malacoplakia

Renal malacoplakia

P A Deridder et al. J Urol. 1977 Apr.

Abstract

Malacoplakia often is considered a benign disease. Our recent experience with renal parenchymal malacoplakia and a review of the literature have revealed the clinical and pathologic features as well as the prognosis of this renal disease. Upper urinary tract malacoplakia is neither benign nor self-limited, and bilateral renal parenchymal involvement has been uniformly fatal.
