| Core Tip |
It is known that obstructive uropathy or occlusion of the lymphatic ducts may lead to extravasated fluids (urine or lymph) crossing the diaphragm via innate perforations or lymphatic channels. Therein, this clinical phenomenon is addressed as the “urothorax”. Among the diverse etiologies, renal lymphangiectasia is a congenital or acquired abnormality of the lymphatic system of the kidneys. Under this instance, pleural effusion of lymphoid origin may develop when the renal parenchyma is tightly compressed by a perirenal hematoma. Arguably, tight compression of the renal parenchyma may keep the draining lymphatic vessels shut but not prevent the inflow from the capsular lymph plexus. Thus, our report has for the first time described this extremely rare scenario and raises clinical awareness of the underlying passage, through which upward spread of perirenal infection could result in lung abscess. |
