[Pyonephrosis complicated by a pyogenic psoas abscess. Apropos of a case].

Psoas abscess of pyogenic origin developed secondary to renal infection in a patient with coralliform lithiasis, a favorable outcome being obtained after nephrectomy and drainage of abscess. Clinical diagnosis is difficult but ultrasound and CT scan imaging provide useful data. Other causes of pyogenic abscess are discussed, the most frequent origin being digestive disease.

[Left-sided inferior vena cava: source of peroperative difficulties in nephrectomy of a horseshoe kidney with pyonephrosis].

A case of left-sided inferior vena cava, discovered intra-operatively, is reported. The authors consider that the operative risk associated with this anomaly could have been avoided by preoperative ultrasonographic localisation of the vessel. They recommend that ultrasonographic localisation of the inferior vena cava should be an integral part of every renal ultrasonography examination.
