Is perinephric stranding bad for the kidney?

Perinephric stranding is generally indicative of inflammation or edema around the kidney, often associated with conditions such as pyelonephritis or renal abscess. While it itself does not directly damage the kidney, it can signal underlying issues that may affect kidney function if not addressed. Early diagnosis and treatment are essential to prevent potential complications. Therefore, while perinephric stranding is not inherently "bad," it warrants medical evaluation.


How do you treat perinephric stranding?

Stranding of perinephric fat is defined as linear areas of soft tissue attenuation in the perinephric space, which can result from any acute process or injury to the kidney. When unilateral perinephric stranding is identified it is most frequently the result of calyceal rupture or perinephric inflammation. Perinephric stranding is probably the manifestation of increased pressure in the collecting system in the early phase of ureteral obstruction. Perinephric stranding is easily identified on Spiral CT and less commonly seen on IVP.


Can perinephric stranding be seen on ultrasound?

Yea

What is perinephric stranding and fluid around kidney?

Perinephric stranding refers to the appearance of linear or streaky areas of increased attenuation around the kidney on imaging studies, often indicating inflammation or edema in the surrounding tissues. Fluid around the kidney, or perinephric fluid, may signify various conditions, such as infection (e.g., pyelonephritis), trauma, or malignancy. The presence of both findings can suggest a pathological process affecting the kidney, requiring further evaluation and management.

Where are the kidneys and how are they held in place?

The kidneys are located in the posterior abdominal cavity, one on each side of the spine, typically at the level of the T12 to L3 vertebrae. They are held in place by a combination of renal fascia, which is a protective layer of connective tissue, and perinephric fat that cushions and anchors them. Additionally, the surrounding abdominal organs and the diaphragm help provide some structural support.
