RESUMEN

Introducción:

La linfangiectasia renal es una afección infrecuente en la que existe dilatación de los vasos linfáticos renales. Usualmente es bilateral y de buen pronóstico.

Objetivos:

Presentar un caso de linfangiectasia renal bilateral, sus características clínicas y aspectos del diagnóstico imaginológico. Caso clínico Paciente femenina de 59 años de edad, hipertensa controlada, que asistió a la consulta externa de urología por dolor lumbar bilateral, de moderada intensidad y coloración rojiza de la orina, ambos de forma intermitente. El examen físico general y regional fue negativo. Se confirmó microhematuria en el examen general de la orina. Los estudios de la analítica sanguínea fueron normales. El ultrasonido renal reportó pielocaliectasia bilateral moderada y quistes parapiélicos, bilaterales, a predominio izquierdo. La tomografía axial computarizada renal contrastada, reveló la presencia de formaciones hipodensas renales bilaterales, de aspecto quístico parapiélicas y en el seno renal, compatibles con linfangiectasia bilateral. La paciente ha evolucionado favorablemente.

Conclusiones:

La linfangiectasia renal se debe tener en cuenta en el diagnóstico deferencial de la enfermedad quística renal. Para el diagnóstico imaginológico de certeza es esencial la tomografía axial computarizada renal contrastada(AU)
