RESUMO
A diverticulum is an outpouching of a hollow (or fluid-filled) structure in the body. They are most commonly seen in the urinary bladder, intestine, and pharyngeal region and are rarely seen in renal calyces. They are usually benign, asymptomatic, and are coincidentally detected. Due to their nonspecific clinical and radiological picture, sometimes they mimic malignant tumors, leading to misdiagnosis and treatment. We are presenting a case of 60-year-old female with right breast carcinoma, on whole body 18-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography-computed tomography; we observed an interesting finding in the right renal region mimicking renal metastasis.
