Posttransplant Intrarenal Lymphangiectasia

Figure 2

Coronal MRI of transplanted kidney. Postcontrast fat-saturated (a, c) and T2-weighted (b) show a nonenhancing peripelvic multiseptated fluid collection centered in the renal hilum which is hypointense on T1-weighted images and hyperintense on T2-weighted images (arrows, (a, b)). The fluid collection is encasing the hilar vasculature (arrowhead, (c)) and insinuating parallel to the ureter (dotted arrow, (c)) but is separate from the collecting system. There is no vascular displacement or hydronephrosis.
