title: [Xanthogranulomatous pyelonephritis with fatty proliferation of the renal space. Aspects in x-ray computed tomography and MRI].
abstract: The authors report one case of one case of xanthogranulomatous pyelonephritis associated with very extensive fatty proliferation in the renal space. This mass surrounded a small, pyelonephritic kidney with a considerable xanthomatous component containing a coral calculus. It was associated with a streaming abscess in the lumbar fossa. The computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) features are described in this article.
