Abstract

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.
