Computed tomography of acute renal failure secondary to rhabdomyolysis.
Two patients with rhabdomyolysis and renal failure were imaged with CT. The presence of a striate nephrogram, nephromegaly, and perinephric fluid has not previously been described on CT. Although nonspecific, these findings suggest the diagnosis of acute tubular blockade, and, once identified, administration of additional urographic contrast medium should be avoided.

Pancreatic pseudotumor in pancreas divisum: CT characteristics.
We report a case in which a focally spared area of pancreatic tissue in a gland otherwise replaced by fat created a "pseudomass" mimicking neoplasm on sonography and CT. The "pseudomass" appearance was related to the anomalous ductal anatomy in pancreas divisum. The spared area of pancreas creating a "pseudomass" was drained by the dorsal duct and the remainder of the pancreas that had undergone relative fatty replacement was drained by the ventral duct.

Extensive venous thrombosis and hind-limb edema associated with adrenocortical carcinoma in a dog.
A 10-year-old, spayed female, mixed-breed dog was referred for evaluation of bilateral hindlimb edema and weakness. Abdominal ultrasonography showed increased echogenicity of the lumen of the caudal vena cava from the level of the urinary bladder to the level of the cranial pole of the right kidney. Bilateral saphenous venograms displayed numerous filling defects in the caudal vena cava, right external iliac vein, right femoral vein, and the right common iliac vein. Extensive venous thrombosis was diagnosed, and the animal was euthanized. Necropsy confirmed the presence of venous thrombosis and revealed a right adrenocortical carcinoma that had invaded the caudal vena cava.
