Extractions: Case Author(s): Hamid Latifi,MD , 4/14/95 . Rating: #D2, #Q3 33 year old man with slowly increasing creatinine. Images: Posterior images of abdomen through 20 minutes. Both rows of images are the same but the bottom row is at higher intensity to show the soft tissues. View main image(rs) in a separate image viewer View second image(rs). Post-furosemide posterior images of the abdomen, 5 minutes per frame for 30 minutes. Full history/Diagnosis is available below 33-year old man with known diagnosis of prune belly syndrome and history of multiple prior urinary tract infections who now presents with a slowly increasing serum creatinine. The patient has had a prior vesicostomy. Renal scintigraphy was requested to evaluate relative renal function and exclude renal obstruction. Renal scintigraphy shows a small right kidney with normal left renal function. The collecting systems are dilated bilaterally, worse on the left. The ureters are laterally deviated, which is not unusual in patients with prune belly syndrome. There is no evidence of urodynamically significant obstruction, as documented by prompt clearance of activity from both renal collecting systems after administration of intravenous furosemide. This case simply demonstrates a renal scintigraphic appearance of an adult patient with prune belly syndrome.

Cited by other online articles PubMed PubMed Citation Articles by Terada, S Articles by Akasofu, K S Terada, N Suzuki, K Uchide, H Ueno, and K Akasofu BACKGROUND: Prune belly syndrome is a rare and complicated condition affecting the genitourinary organs and abdominal wall. The etiology of abdominal musculature deficiency in prune belly syndrome is controversial. We present a case that should elucidate the etiology of this syndrome. CASE: A spontaneously aborted fetus at 12 weeks' gestation with an early stage of prune belly syndrome was investigated by necropsy and light and electron microscopy. Megalocystis resulting from urethral atresia was diagnosed. There was no hydroureter or hydronephrosis, and both light and electron microscopy demonstrated evidence of development of the abdominal musculature. Both testes were elevated as a result of the megalocystis. CONCLUSION: These findings suggest that hypoplasia of the abdominal musculature and cryptorchidism might develop secondary to the presence of chronic megalocystis in this syndrome.

Health Encyclopedia Back to main Health Information page Abdominal muscles Definition: Prune belly syndrome is a group of congenital anomalies characterized by three major findings: Alternative Names: Eagle-Barrett syndrome Causes And Risk: The underlying causes of prune belly syndrome are unknown. 96-97% of cases are boys. Expectant mothers carrying affected infants may develop varying degrees of oligohydramnios (insufficient amniotic fluid ) that make it likely the infant will have lung problems. (See also Potter syndrome The newborn infant has a wrinkled abdomen that looks like a prune. This is because the abdomen swelled with fluid in the womb, then lost that fluid after birth, leading to wrinkles of excess skin. The appearance is accentuated by the lack of adequate abdominal musculature. Many infants are either stillborn or die within the first few weeks of life from severe lung or kidney problems, or a combination of congenital anomalies.
