Rind-like Perirenal Soft-Tissue Masses

Rind-like perirenal soft tissue masses: Retroperitoneal fibrosis Differential diagnosis for rind-like perirenal soft-tissue masses:
  • Lymphoma
    • Usually due to contiguous spread from retroperitoneal or renal lymphoma: Distinct imaging patterns: multiple masses, solitary mass, diffuse infiltrating mass, rindlike soft-tissue thickening, and direct invasion from adjacent retroperitoneal lymphadenopathy
    • Isolated perirenal lymphoma very unusual (Does not necessarily affect renal function.
  • Erdheim-Chester disease
    • Rindlike soft-tissue lesions surrounding the kidneys and ureters
    • Severe compression of renal parenchyma and ureters leads to progressive renal failure
    • Percutaneous nephrostomy made difficult because due to fibrous perinephritis.
  • Retroperitoneal Fibrosis (shown above)
    • Typically localized to infrarenal aorta and common iliac arteries
    • Isolated or related to multifocal fibrosclerosis (may include autoimmune pancreatitis, sclerosing cholangitis, scleroderma, Riedel thyroiditis, fibrotic pseudotumor of the orbit, and fibrosis involving multiple organ systems).
    • Perirenal involvement can be from extension from retroperitoneal fibrosis, without associated retroperitoneal fibrosis, or one of manifestations of multifocal fibrosclerosis
    • Perirenal involvement: Soft-tissue mass enveloping kidneys without displacing them.
