Renal lymphangiectasia is one of the rarest surgical complications in post-transplant kidney patients. A few patients may clinically complain of nonspecific symptoms, and the other few might be diagnosed incidentally. We report the case of a 32-year-old female patient with a known case of Joubert syndrome who presented with nonspecific clinical manifestations. The patient underwent ultrasound, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and nuclear medicine (NM) imaging to confirm the diagnosis, which showed radiologic features of renal lymphangiectasia. Conservative medical management was delivered to the patient.
肾淋巴管扩张症是肾移植术后患者中极为罕见的手术并发症之一。少数患者可能会临床上主诉非特异性症状,而其他少数患者可能是偶然被诊断出来。我们报告一例32岁已知患有乔伯特综合征的女性患者,其出现了非特异性临床表现。该患者接受了超声、磁共振成像(MRI)和核医学(NM)成像以确诊,这些检查显示出肾淋巴管扩张症的影像学特征。对该患者进行了保守药物治疗。
