CT Filling Defect in a Calyx Phantom Calyx Sign

CT Filling Defect in a Calyx Phantom Calyx Sign
77-year-old male with smoking history presents with hematuria. CT with contrast in the axial plane during the excretory shows evidence of an expansile filling defect occupying a left upper pole calyx. Histology showed a transitional cell carcinoma (TCC), The associated imaging sign is called a ?phantom calyx sign? inferring a calyx that completely fails to opacify

Principles

Principles of Biology All biology is made of parts which bond to create structure and function in time and space. The purpose to create more order and a oneness. This sometimes leads to order and health, and sometimes leads to disorder and disease. Copyright Ashley Davidoff MD 2019 TCV-0068
