Postoperative renal striated hyperdense shadows may indicate postoperative connective tissue fibroplasia, renal stones, renal cysts, renal tumors, and other renal pathologies. Postoperative renal striated hyperdense shadow usually refers to the following possibilities: after a certain surgery, when CT examination of kidney is performed, the image shows striated hyperdense shadow in the kidney.
1. Postoperative connective tissue fibroplasia: connective tissue fibroplasia may be formed after the surgery, which is shown as local changes on the image, and generally belongs to the normal changes after the surgery, and can be reviewed regularly.
2. Kidney stones: the more common high-density shadow in the clinic is kidney stones, often accompanied by low back pain, urinary frequency, urinary urgency, urinary pain and other discomforts.
3. Renal cysts: when renal cysts are complicated by hemorrhage, they may also be reflected in the CT as striated high-density shadow.
4. Renal tumor: some benign renal tumors themselves can lead to renal striated hyperdense shadow, in addition, some tumors lead to hemorrhage can also appear striated hyperdense shadow.
In addition, when bleeding occurs in the kidney itself and when substantial space-occupying lesions occur, striated hyperdense shadow may also appear. It is recommended to consult your doctor for further diagnosis and treatment if you develop striated hyperdense renal shadows after surgery.
