case_images: CT images of the patient. (a) A coronal section illustrating the hydronephrotic right kidney (*) due to the obstruction caused by the lower ureteric tumour and the left kidney with a contrast enhancing mass in the lower pole (**) and a simple cyst in the upper pole (arrow). (b) A coronal section through the left renal mass. (c) An axial section showing the right ureteric tumour (arrow) in relation to the posterior wall of the bladder (*).
