Randall plaque versus renal stone?
Abstract
A 43-year-old patient has just left the office. Her primary care
physician had dutifully evaluated her recent complaint of vague
abdominal pain with an abdominal ultrasound. The multiple,
small, punctate hyperechoic lesions in the kidney were deemed
concerning for renal calculi and an abdominal computed
tomography (CT) scan was ordered to better delineate these
"renal stones".
