Abstract
We present the case of a 20โyearโold male with renal lymphangiectasia who presented with hypertension and hematuria. We discuss the role of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) with gadoliniumโenhanced MR urography in confirming the diagnosis, extensions of this rare benign entity, and associated conditions. J. Magn.
