Figures

Figure 1.
Figure 1. a) Contrast-enhanced CT showing non-enhanced areas of the anterior surface and lower pole of the right kidney, suggestive of renal infarction. b) Coronal reconstruction demonstrating the absence of contrast enhancement of the inferior pole of the right kidney.
Figure 2.
Figure 2. a) CECT revealing absence of contrast uptake by almost entire right kidney, suggesting large renal infarction. b) CECT revealing gas bubbles inside the wall of the small intestine loops, indicating ischemic bowel.
Figure 3.
Figure 3. a) CT angiography reconstruction showing infarction of a large area of the left kidney due to occlusion of a left renal artery branch. b) Abdominal CT revealing absence of contrast enhancement of the anterior portion of the left kidney.
