ABSTRACT
A young pregnant woman hospitalized in our department with sepsis due to a paranephric abscess, and treated successfully with a nephrostomy under the guidance of low-dose CT, is presented. Based on this successful and safe treatment for the fetus, it is proposed that low-dose CT can be applied without any risk to pregnant women with special urological problems such as paranephric and splenic abscesses, dysmorphic and ectopic or horseshoe kidneys.
