Computed tomography of high density renal cysts.
Eleven patients are described whose computed tomography (CT) examinations showed homogeneous, high density (62-76 Hounsfield units) renal masses. In two patients a hemorrhagic benign cyst was found at surgery. In the remaining nine patients the constellation of CT and clinical findings supported the benign nature of this lesion.
