Renal calcification
Introduction
Introduction It refers to the deposition of calcium salts in the renal parenchyma due to elevated blood calcium, causing renal dysfunction. At the time of calcification, spotted calcification or whole kidney calcification shadow can be displayed on the urinary tract plain film. Renal calcification has a urography on the edge of the early renal pelvis. Can be secondary to disease: 1 Intestinal tube absorption of excessive calcium: such as primary hyperparathyroidism, primary hypercalcemia in children, vitamin D poisoning, lactoal syndrome and sarcoma; 2 bone destruction: such as primary hyperparathyroidism, multiple myeloma, secondary osteolytic calcium precipitation; 3 kidney damage: such as renal trauma, renal parenchymal destruction, calcium deposition in necrotic tissue; renal calcification after mercury poisoning; kidney calcification caused by kidney infection; renal tubular acidosis and kidney caused by hypochlorine alkalosis Calcification, etc. 4 congenital renal dysplasia: such as calcification caused by sponge kidney; 5 Unexplained renal calcification.

Diagnosis
Differential diagnosis
Secondary disease:
1 Intestinal tube absorption of excessive calcium: such as primary hyperparathyroidism, primary hypercalcemia in children, vitamin D poisoning, lactoal syndrome and sarcoma;
2 bone destruction: such as primary hyperparathyroidism, multiple myeloma, secondary osteolytic calcium precipitation;
3 kidney damage: such as renal trauma, renal parenchymal destruction, calcium deposition in necrotic tissue; renal calcification after mercury poisoning; kidney calcification caused by kidney infection; renal tubular acidosis and kidney caused by hypochlorine alkalosis Calcification, etc.
4 congenital renal dysplasia: such as calcification caused by sponge kidney;
5 Unexplained renal calcification.
