This document contains 6 figures showing different types of anechoic renal masses that can be identified on ultrasound imaging. Figure 1 shows simple renal cysts appearing as fluid-filled masses with enhanced posterior walls. Figure 2 displays adult polycystic kidney disease with multiple varying sized cysts maintaining renal contour. Figure 3 depicts a parapelvic cyst displacing but not separating the pelvicalyceal echo complex. Figure 4 demonstrates hydronephrosis as communicating cystic structures from an obstructed renal pelvis and calyces. Figure 5 shows a multicystic dysplastic kidney appearing as a cystic kidney without communication between structures. Figure 6 is an extensive hematoma around a renal transplant.

PGR-FCPS III SIMS/SHL Fig GU 28-1 Simple renal cysts. Anechoic fluid-filled masses (C) with strongly enhanced posterior walls. Fig GU 28-2 Adult polycystic kidney disease. (A) Parasagittal sonogram of the right kidney (PK) shows a random distribution of multiple cysts that vary dramatically in size. The normal reniform contour is maintained. (B) Parasagittal sonogram in a young, asymptomatic member of the family shows multiple cysts (CR, CL) in the right kidney (R) and liver (L). (D, diaphragm; H, head.)2 Fig GU 28-3 Parapelvic cyst (C). Fluid-filled collection that displaces but does not separate the pelvocalyceal echo complex. Fig GU 28-4 Hydronephrosis. Obstructed renal pelvis and calyces produce the sonographic pattern of multiple communicating cystic structures (arrows).25 Fig GU 28-5 Multicystic dysplastic kidney. Sagittal sonogram demonstrates the cystic kidney (K). Note the absence of communication between the cystic structures.27 Fig GU 28-6 Hematoma. Extensive anechoic collection (H) about a renal transplant.
