Abstract
Endometriosis of kidney is a rare manifestation of a relatively common disease. We report a case in which ovarian and renal endometriosis were diagnosed concurrently. The disease was probably silent for a long time due to coexistent thyrotoxicosis modifying estrogen metabolism. Fine needle aspiration cytology clinched the diagnosis of endometriosis and avoided unnecessary nephrectomy.
摘要
肾子宫内膜异位症是一种相对常见疾病的罕见表现。我们报告一例同时诊断出卵巢和肾子宫内膜异位症的病例。由于并存甲状腺毒症改变了雌激素代谢，该疾病可能长期无症状。细针穿刺细胞学检查确诊了子宫内膜异位症，避免了不必要的肾切除术。
