Abstract

Objective To discuss the diagnostic performance of multislice spiral CT in renal collecting duct carcinoma(CDC). Methods The multi-slice spiral CT findings in 5 patients with pathologically-proved CDC were retrospectively analyzed, and the literature was reviewed. Results All of 5 cases were unilateral diffuse and ill-defined lesion, and the renal contour were basically normal. Two tumors were cystic-solid change, and the solid lesion showed mild delayed enhancement on contrast-enhanced CT. Conclusion The multi-slice spiral CT findings of renal collecting duct carcinoma may benefit the definite diagnosis before operation and guide the scheme of clinical surgery which may help reduce unnecessary treatment.
