Abstract A 45-year-old male presented with history of left flank pain for 1 year, which was mild dull aching in nature. Plain X-ray film of the urinary tract (Fig. 1) was suggestive of diffuse calcification in the left renal area (broad arrow) along with calcification in the ipsilateral ureter region (thin arrows). Chest X-ray was normal. Non-contrast computed tomography (CT) of kidney, ureter and bladder (axial section) showed replacement of entire left kidney with calcification (Fig. 2A). After contrast injection, the left kidney was not visualised while normal contrast uptake was seen in the right kidney (Fig. 2B) (coronal section).
