Cystic Renal Dysplasia

Cystic Renal Dysplasia •The photograph shows the upper pole of a kidney amputated for renal dysplasia. The pelvis has been opened to show a dilated pelvis with a trabeculated luminal surface. •The renal parenchyma shows multiple cysts (arrows). •This upper pole was associated with a duplicated ureter that was tortuous, dilated and obstructed at the uretero- vesicle junction (not shown). The remainder of the kidney was normal with a separate ureter and left in the patient. (Description By:H. Yamase, M.D. ) (Image Contrib. by: UCHC )
