An unusual appearance of renal lymphoma.
The kidney is a relatively common site of extranodal involvement by lymphoma and various patterns have been documented (Richmond et al., 1962). We describe a patient in whom renal involvement by non-Hodgkin's lymphoma produced unusual appearances on ultrasound and computed tomography (CT). The possible causes and relevance of these findings are discussed.
