Renal lymphangiectasia is a rare diagnosis. It is also referred to as renal lymphangioma, renal lymphangiomatosis, peripelvic lymphangiectasia, renal peripelvic multicystic lymphangiectasia, and hygroma renale. The presentation varies, and the diagnosis depends on accurate radiologic interpretation. We present the radiologic images of a pediatric patient who was diagnosed with renal lymphangiectasia after being evaluated for suspected nonaccidental trauma to emphasize the importance of identifying this entity by the characteristic radiologic findings.
肾淋巴管扩张症是一种罕见的诊断。它也被称为肾淋巴管瘤、肾淋巴管瘤病、肾盂周围淋巴管扩张症、肾盂周围多房性淋巴管扩张症和肾性水肿。其表现多种多样，诊断取决于准确的影像学解读。我们呈现了一位儿科患者的影像学图像，该患者在被评估疑似非故意外伤后被诊断为肾淋巴管扩张症，旨在强调通过特征性影像学发现来识别这种疾病的重要性。
