ABSTRACT

Q. A 44-year-old woman presents with a 6-month history of recurrent urinary tract infections (UTIs) and occasional left loin ache. A recent midstream urine culture grew Proteus mirabilis 105 cfu/mL with >200 leucocytes. Her GP has requested an ultrasound of the renal tract and plain kidney, ureter and bladder (KUB) x-ray. What does the KUB x-ray in Figure 10.1 show?
