The authors present their experience involving seven patients with histopathologic diagnosis of xanthogranulomatous pyelonephritis who were submitted to preoperative computed tomography (CT). The results are the following: a) stones (86 percent of the cases), b) increase in renal volume, c) hydronephrosis, d) density measurements (from 14 to 29 HU), e) enhancement found in all cases, f) extrarenal involvement (all cases). CT has shown to be a reliable method in characterizing xanthogranulomatous xyelonephritis and extrarenal involvement.
作者介绍了他们对7例经组织病理学诊断为黄色肉芽肿性肾盂肾炎的患者进行术前计算机断层扫描（CT）的经验。结果如下：a）结石（86%的病例），b）肾脏体积增大，c）肾积水，d）密度测量值（14至29亨氏单位），e）所有病例均有强化，f）肾外受累（所有病例）。CT已被证明是一种用于鉴别黄色肉芽肿性肾盂肾炎和肾外受累情况的可靠方法。
