Beware of the normal excretory urogram. 1975

B Rothschild, and R Gleckman

Excretory urography is not an infallible diagnostic procedure and should not be relied upon exclusively. A normal study must never result in the rejection of additional data derived from history, physical examination and laboratory tests. Two case histories are presented to underscore this caveat. Excretory urography must be supplemented additional radiographic evaluations when the conventional study fails to completely explain the clinical situation.
