n
Solitary parapelvic cysts (see Fig. 388c, p. 273; Fig. 389a, p. 273):
x
Clinical features: may be tubular retention cysts (such as cortical and subcapsu­lar cysts) or may have a lymphoid origin, arising from the lymphatic vessels of the renal sinus
x
Sonographic criteria : The standard criteria for cysts are reviewed on p. 272. A cyst with an inherently flat shape may show internal echogenicity or irregular margins due to physical artifacts such as noise. A flattened oval shape is parti­cularly common with multiple cysts.
n
Multiple parapelvic cysts (Fig. 407; Fig. 388d, p. 273): usually bilateral, taking the
form of “benign cystic lymphangioma.”
