Özet

Background Calyceal diverticulum is the cystic eventration of the upper urinary tract within the renal parenchyma, which gives the first impression of a simple renal cyst and therefore can easily be misdiagnosed. We conducted a study to assess the role of static-fluid magnetic resonance (MR) urography in the differentiation of renal parenchymal cysts and calyceal diverticulum in comparison with focused renal ultrasonography (US).
