Huge renal arteriovenous malformation mimicking simple parapelvic cyst.
The presenting symptoms of renal arteriovenous malformations are usually gross hematuria and hypertension. Herein we present an unusual case of huge renal arteriovenous malformation without these signs, but with ultrasound picture mimicking simple parapelvic cyst. Other imaging test, including Duplex ultrasound, computerized tomography and aortography, demonstrated that vascular lesion. We suggest that Duplex ultrasound should accompany the routine renal ultrasound in order not to miss such cases, especially when the physical examination suggests intra-abdominal vascular lesion or bleeding.

[Clinical efficacy of abdominal ultrasonography].
Ultrasonic examinations of the abdomen is suspected visceral diseases may result in the detection of the pathology processes that were not suspected before. To determine the frequency of these unexpected findings, the authors have examined 3000 patients for 2 years. A total of 792 pathology processes were detected that were quite unexpected for the physicians who sent the patients for the examination. Liver tumor were detected in 36 cases, 25 of these metastatic ones, gallbladder stones were detected in 82 cases, tumors and cysts of the kidney and other conditions were detected. The authors come to a conclusion, that no matter what the suspected condition is, the specialist in radiodiagnosis should carry out an ultrasonic examination of the total abdomen.
