Abstract
The computed tomography appearance of contrast material extravasated in the right
perirenal space is presented. The complication occurred during test injection prior
to translumbar aortography. The computed tomography findings were those of a right
prerenal collection with high attenuation numbers representing contrast extravasation.
Concurrent displacement of the second portion of the duodenum and inferior vena cava
was present. No other retroperitoneal abnormalities were noted. The importance of
computed tomography for early recognition and follow-up are emphasized.
