RETROPERITONEAL FIBROSIS: EXTRARETROPERITONEAL LESIONS

REPORT OF THREE UNUSUAL AREAS OF INVOLVEMENT

SAMUEL L. HISSONG M.D.1 and ATIS K. FREIMANIS M.D.1

1 From the Department of Radiology, Ohio State University, College of Medicine, Columbus, Ohio.

The roentgenographic findings in retroperitoneal fibrosis are discussed, with particular attention to the more recently identified extraretroperitoneal and remote lesions.

A case with associated ankylosis of the sacroiliac joints, a case of an apparently widespread systemic fibrosis in a 16 year old patient, including an intracranial lesion, and a case involving the pelvic organs are presented.

While the exact nature of these associated changes—as well as that of retroperitoneal fibrosis itself—is not clear, the implications of widespread involvement, and particularly in roentgenologic diagnosis, are stressed, since knowledge of such possible manifestations may be helpful in their diagnosis.
