Abstract:
This 1977 program, produced for WRAMC-TV, is a lecture by Dr. P. Ruben Koehler on unusual renal masses and their geography with an emphasis on inflammatory masses. These cases have become more common due to the increased use of heroin and amphetamines, and they can be difficult to differentiate from malignant lesions and neoplasms, resulting in kidneys being unnecessarily removed when they should instead be treated with antibiotics. A series of X-ray slides illustrates these differences, showing internal organs from various patients, with advice on how to come to a correct diagnosis.
