A rare cause of abdominal distension: Giant hydronephrosis

Abstract

Giant hydronephrosis is a term used to describe a hydronephrotic kidney with more than one litre of fluid in the renal collecting system. It is a rare entity and often misdiagnosed clinically. It usually presents with vague clinical symptoms mimicking a variety of cystic lesions of the abdomen. We report a 35-year-old man with giant hydronephrosis presenting with a huge intraabdominal mass, and the diagnosis and management of this case are discussed with relevant literature
