Solid tissue hypointense on T2-weighted images with post-contrast enhancement extended in the retroperitoneal area surrounding all upper abdominal vessels, adrenal glands and the left renal hilum (61x12 mm, black arrows). Lesions with the same characteristics also interest the hepatic hilum (36x12mm, white arrow) and the mesenteric adipose tissue. Left kidney enlarged with pyelectasis.
