Renal infarction: computerized tomographic appearance with angiographic correlation.
The clinical diagnosis of renal infarction can be difficult to make and the computerized tomographic appearance can be misleading at times. The different computerized tomographic images can be explained angiographically by the arrangement of the vascular planes of the kidney and by the particular branches that are occluded. We report 2 cases with different angiographic and computerized tomographic appearance to document this correlation.
