Segmental renal artery infarction: a case report with computerized tomography scan and angiographic correlation.
Segmental renal artery infarction results in a clinical syndrome that generally involves transient hematuria, leukocytosis, fever and flank or abdominal pain, and generally occurs in patients with a history of atherosclerotic, cardiac or thromboembolic diseases. We present a case that demonstrates the characteristic appearance of this lesion on a computerized tomography scan. Angiographic correlation is provided.
