Puppy w/Lepto


Hi,

This is a clip from the R kidney of a puppy that has Lepto, 5 days into treatment for ARF (albeit conservative treatment with SQ fluids vs IV fluids;  shelter limitations).

I’m just curious about the cranial pole of the kidney…. the hyperechoic wedge.  Is that likely an infarct?

Treatment won’t change, just for my knowledge.

Thanks!

Karen

  1. Looks like an early infact.

    Looks like an early infact. The other possiblity would be a focal area of inflammation.
