Renal pelvic cancer is relatively rare in clinical practice, and renal pelvic cancer characterized by renal infarction is even rarer. We here report a case of renal pelvic urothelial carcinoma with squamous metaplasia with renal infarction as the main imaging feature, and summarize the imaging manifestations of some rare renal pelvic carcinomas.
The imaging features of renal pelvis cancer are diverse and often confused with some benign and malignant diseases, suggesting that extra caution should be exercised in the diagnosis and treatment of renal pelvis cancer.
肾盂癌在临床实践中相对少见,以肾梗死为特征的肾盂癌更为罕见。我们在此报告一例以肾梗死为主要影像特征的伴有鳞状化生的肾盂尿路上皮癌病例,并总结一些罕见肾盂癌的影像表现。
肾盂癌的影像特征多样,常与一些良性和恶性疾病相混淆,提示在肾盂癌的诊断和治疗中应格外谨慎。
