An upside-down configuration of the spleen can be mistaken for a left suprarenal mass. A radioisotopic liver-spleen scan will demonstrate a characteristic appearance of the spleen with its hilus superiorly and its convex border medially and adjacent to the kidney. When a left suprarenal mass is identified, we advocate the liver-spleen scan as the first step in the diagnostic workup. If the typical configuration is found, no further studies are necessary.
A patients with congenital absence of the left pericardium had an unusual scintillation camera image of the lung showing perfused lung between the heart and diaphragm and a priminence in the area of the pulmonary artery. This finding was not duplicated in 500 other gamma images of the lung and is probably characteristic of congenital absence of the left pericardium.
A case of renal liposarcoma is described. The clinical presentation, angiographic findings and treatment are discussed.
