title: Left renal vein aneurysm: imaging findings.
abstract: A renal vein aneurysm is a rare vascular disease. To our knowledge, only six cases have been reported. We describe a 57-year-old woman with a left renal vein aneurysm diagnosed by a combination of ultrasonography, color Doppler ultrasonography, contrast-enhanced computed tomography, and magnetic resonance imaging.
