Anatomic variations in the urogenital tract have generally been diagnosed through intravenous urography as a modality of choice. In recent years, computerized tomography (CT) urogram has replaced the traditional intravenous imaging of the genitourinary tract. Hematuria, tumoral mass, obstructive uropathy, and congenital collecting system abnormalities are indications for CT imaging. In this report, we present a young woman with intermittent right flank pain and recent urinary tract infection. Her history was also positive for spontaneous abortion. She was referred to the Radiology Clinic for a CT urography. Our aim, in this case report, is to highlight the role of CT urography in the early diagnosis of anatomical variations of the urogenital system and appropriate prevention of clinical progression.
泌尿生殖道的解剖变异通常通过静脉尿路造影作为首选检查方法来诊断。近年来，计算机断层扫描（CT）尿路造影已取代了传统的泌尿生殖道静脉成像。血尿、肿瘤肿块、梗阻性尿路病以及先天性集合系统异常是CT成像的适应证。在本报告中，我们介绍了一名年轻女性，她有间歇性右侧腰痛和近期尿路感染。她的病史中还有自然流产阳性记录。她被转诊至放射科诊所进行CT尿路造影检查。在本病例报告中，我们的目的是强调CT尿路造影在泌尿生殖系统解剖变异早期诊断及适当预防临床进展方面的作用。
