CT and magnetic resonance imaging of the abdomen and pelvis with intravenous contrast, and pathology images showing microscopic features of the lesion. (A and B) Coronal and axial CT images showing a large obstructing calculus in the left renal pelvis (black arrows) and a low-density perirenal soft tissue mass with enhancing components (white arrowheads); (C) Horseshoe configuration of the kidneys (black arrows); (D) T2-weighted axial magnetic resonance imaging showing vascular flow voids suggestive of vessels (white arrowheads); (E) In-phase and (F) out-of-phase magnetic resonance imaging sequences showing signal drop-out consistent with macroscopic fat content; (G-I) Pathological analysis showing mature adipose tissue with areas of myxoid change, small blood vessels, and aggregates of chronic inflammatory cells, and there was no significant stromal atypia; (J) Scattered Touton-type giant cells present in the lesion, predominantly in the areas with chronic inflammation. CT, computed tomography.
