Article Synopsis
- Renal lymphangiectasia (RL) is a rare condition characterized by dilated lymphatic vessels leading to cysts in various kidney locations, and its understanding largely stems from individual case reports.
- The condition can be genetic or acquired, affects individuals of any gender or age, and often presents as abdominal or flank pain, being either focal or diffuse and unilateral or bilateral.
- Diagnosis relies on imaging techniques, and while treatment is typically conservative, there is a need for long-term monitoring for complications like hypertension and renal vein thrombosis; a case of bilateral RL is discussed alongside a literature review.
