Abstract
We report a unique case of exacerbation of renal lymphangiomatosis during pregnancy which was managed percutaneously until delivery. Renal lymphangiomatosis is a very rare benign disorder that might cause abdominal pain and rarely hypertension and hematuria. Surgical treatment options may result in nephrectomy. Percutaneous drainage of symptomatic renal lymphangiomas should be viewed as an efficient therapeutic option particularly when surgery is contraindicated.Entities:
