A uriniferous perirenal pseudocyst is a mass formed by collection of extravasated urine within the perirenal fascia. It may result from closed renal injury, surgical operation, or arise spontaneously in the presence of obstruction. To our knowledge, only two cases have been reported about radionuclide imaging in this condition. We present a case in whom a unique scintillation camera image of the kidney was created with /sup 99m/Tc-dimercaptosuccinic acid (DMSA).
