Xanthogranulomatous pyelonephritis is an uncommon form of chronic renal infection which can be confused clinically, radiographically, and pathologically with renal carcinoma. Occasionally, xanthogranulomatous changes are more prominent in perinephric tissue than in the renal parenchyma itself. We present a case of locally invasive xanthogranulomatous perinephritis associated with thrombosis of the renal vein and inferior vena cava. With this constellation of findings, infections as well as malignant etiologies should be considered in the differential diagnosis.
黄色肉芽肿性肾盂肾炎是一种少见的慢性肾脏感染形式，在临床、影像学及病理方面都可能与肾癌相混淆。偶尔，黄色肉芽肿性改变在肾周组织中比在肾实质本身更为显著。我们报告一例局部侵袭性黄色肉芽肿性肾周炎伴肾静脉及下腔静脉血栓形成的病例。基于这一系列表现，在鉴别诊断中应考虑感染及恶性病因。
