Abstract
Renal lymphangectasia is a benign malformation of the lymphatics which can be perirenal or peripelvic in location. Diagnosis is made on imaging including ultrasound, computed tomography , or MRI. We present an unusual case of renal lymphangectasia presenting with gross hematuria and flank pain diagnosed on computed tomography.
