Hybrid SPECT/CT as a diagnostic modality in suspected urinoma with ambiguous planar Tc99m EC renal scintigraphy

Injuries to the collecting system is the most frequent cause and can be either traumatic or rarely iatrogenic during surgical or percutaneous procedures, for example, pyelolithotomy, pyeloplasty, ureterolithotomy, vaginal or abdominal hysterectomy, rectal dissection, or percutaneous urological interventional procedures. [6],[7] Special situations where scintigraphy are of great help are in patients who cannot receive intravenous contrast material due to increased serum creatinine level, patient allergic to the contrast material, and have received a renal transplant. [...]IVP is relatively insensitive in the diagnosis of renal injuries and urine leaks and may demonstrate normal findings in over 30% of cases of significant renal injury.
