Renal carbuncle: simulation of tumor response to epinephrine.
A case of renal carbuncle with unusual angiographic findings is presented. The abscess showed abnormal vessels on selective angiogrpahy which were enhanced after intra-arterial epinephrine. New foci of abnormal vessels were also seen on the postepinephrine angiogram.
