Giant Cysticercosis of the Right Kidney: A Case Report
Cysticercosis, although reported in several parts of the body, especially the liver, lesions occurring in the kidney are particularly rare. We report a 58-year-old female patient with intermittent epigastric pain, who was found to have a huge occupancy of the right kidney on computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), which was confirmed to have a predominantly cystic component, with no clear enhancement on CT images after injection of contrast medium, and significant enhancement of the peritoneum and septum visible on MRI. This case reports a case and its rarity of cysticercosis occurring in the kidney.
期刊介绍:
Clinical Case Reports is different from other case report journals. Our aim is to directly improve global health and increase clinical understanding using case reports to convey important best practice information. We welcome case reports from all areas of Medicine, Nursing, Dentistry, and Veterinary Science and may include: -Any clinical case or procedure which illustrates an important best practice teaching message -Any clinical case or procedure which illustrates the appropriate use of an important clinical guideline or systematic review. As well as: -The management of novel or very uncommon diseases -A common disease presenting in an uncommon way -An uncommon disease masquerading as something more common -Cases which expand understanding of disease pathogenesis -Cases where the teaching point is based on an error -Cases which allow us to re-think established medical lore -Unreported adverse effects of interventions (drug, procedural, or other).
