DIFFERENTIAL DIAGNOSIS IN PERIRENAL FLUID COLLECTIONS
Abstract:
Perirenal fluid collections make up a chapter
met with a relatively low frequency in the current
pathology. Retroperitoneum is an area where large
amounts of fluid can accumulate (blood-posttraumatic,
use of anticoagulants, post-surgical,-pus, lymph or urine
either posttraumatic or postsurgical) without being
revealed by conventional radiology. For diagnosis,
computerized tomography is preferred instead of
ultrasound, because the first has higher sensitivity and
specificity in identifying local collections.
