Methods: We conducted a single-center prospective analysis of 513 patients who underwent CCA.
Objective: We present a case of leiomyoma of the renal capsule in a 49 year-old woman that was detected incidentally during an abdominal study for gastroesophageal reflux. We discuss the clinical, radiological and pathological diagnosis of renal leiomyoma as well as its treatment alternatives.
