“…The spread of extrapancreatic fluid collections to sites not contiguous with the pancreas is a well known possibility; involvement of the retroperitoheal space around the kidney is usual and may mimic renal disease [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12].…”

“…The differentiation of primary pancreatic lesions with transfascial perirenal spread from primary renal disease may be difficult. Prior to modern cross-sectional imaging this was only possible in many cases during surgery or pathologically [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17]. Most of these cases were pancreatitic pseudocysts, mainly located on the left side (39 of 42); the rest were various pancreatic neoplasms.…”

Computed tomographic (CT) findings in 105 cases of pancreatitis and 107 cases of pancreatic carcinoma were analyzed retrospectively to determine the occurrence and roentgenologic signs of penetration of the anterior renal fascial planes in relation to clinical symptoms. In pancreatitis, the perirenal fat was infiltrated in 7% to variable extents by extrapancreatic fluid collections, either as asymptomatic fluid lying alongside renal fascial planes and perirenal septa (5 cases) or as well-circumscribed fluid collections causing clinical symptoms (2 cases). In pancreatic carcinoma the occurrence of retropancreatic extension to a perirenal space was rarer (3%). Distinction on CT between perirenal involvement from the pancreas and primary adrenal or renal lesions with anterior spread can prevent unnecessary surgery.

“…To our knowledge, few reports of renal subcapsular extension of a pancreatic pseudocyst have been published [2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9], and CT and US findings have been described in only two [2,5]. We present another case studied with US and CT.…”
