title: Urographic visualization of multicystic kidneys.
abstract: Classically, multicystic kidneys have been described as having no functioning renal parenchyma that, consequently, should not be seen on excretory urography. However, during the last several years, sufficient concentration of contrast medium permitted radiographic visualization of renal tissue in 4 cases of pathologically typical multicystic kidneys.
