Abstract
We observed a unique sonographic finding in a patient with right global renal infarction associated with anabdominal aortic dissection. Sonography in the acute phase revealed a highly echogenic and thickened perirenal fascia without demonstrable abnormality of the renal parenchyma. This finding may be helpful inthe early diagnosis of renal infarction by routine sonography.
