We report a case of carcinoma in a renal cyst diagnosed by computed tomography. Ultrasound was unavailable because of scheduling difficulties and computed tomography provided a useful alternative in identifying the cystic and solid features of the mass. There was a good correlation of the computed tomography scan with pathology except for a small tumor nodule at the base of the cyst, which was not seen on the scan.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
