Investigations in a patient with a multilocular cyst of kidney included urography, ultrasonography and computed tomography. Urography images showed a mass occupying the lower half of the left kidney with a lacunar image of pelvis, the association of these two elements suggesting a possible cancer of kidney. Ultrasound and computed tomography imaging demonstrated the fluid nature of the mass with absent partitioning. Findings were compared with data from the pathologic specimen which showed a main unilocular cyst with multiple satellite smaller cysts and a thick intrapyelic formation composed of microcystic aggregates. Pre-operative diagnosis of multilocular cyst was assisted by the use of modern imaging techniques: ultrasound and CT scan, which demonstrated a partitioned renal cystic lesion. Diagnosis is still difficult in atypical forms, however, and the relative frequency of an intrapyelic cyst protrusion is emphasized.
对一名患有肾多房性囊肿的患者进行的检查包括尿路造影、超声检查和计算机断层扫描。尿路造影图像显示一个肿块占据左肾下半部，伴有肾盂的腔隙性影像，这两个因素的关联提示可能为肾癌。超声和计算机断层扫描成像显示肿块为液性，无分隔。将这些发现与病理标本的数据进行了比较，病理标本显示一个主要的单房囊肿伴有多个卫星小囊肿以及由微囊性聚集体组成的肾盂内增厚结构。现代成像技术（超声和CT扫描）显示为分隔的肾囊性病变，有助于术前诊断多房性囊肿。然而，非典型形式的诊断仍然困难，并且强调了肾盂内囊肿突出的相对频率。
