A Foreign Body in Renal Parenchyme / 대한비뇨기과학회지

ABSTRACT

Foreign bodies in the renal pelvis or calyx are not rare and the majority of them are iatrogenic in origin. However, a renal parenchymal foreign body is not common. We present a case of an unusual renal foreign body considered to be a needle which had broken due to corrosion in the kidney which was completely removed via open surgery.
