【 摘 要 】
According to the literature, differential diagnosis of xanthogranulomatous pyelonephritis (XGP) can mostly not be recognized preoperatively and is frequently confused with kidney tumor. A 46-year-old female patient was admitted to our urology department with the sole complaint of swelling of the left side of her abdomen and, following her examination and tests, her left kidney was found to turn into a giant size, painless, hydronephrotic mass with stones. However, since a giant solid mass was observed during the operation, it was thought that the mass could be XGP. I would like to report such a case, which may not pre-operatively be considered as XGP on the basis of the complaints, history, and physical examination and imaging findings.
