Selected
normal pelvicalyceal complex
"Geschlossen" is in fact an unusual characterization of the pelvicalyceal complex. I would read this as an "un-fragmented CRPC" (considering Andrea's first reference where a "fragmentation" is mentioned, but I am not sure whether this is really a standard term), or "no splitting of CRPC" - basically a normal CRPC.
Note from asker:
| This would fit with my first instincts since the other findings (other than small parapelvic cysts are normal - I think I will write a note of caution regarding verification of the German term since this does not appear to be a typical description) |
| Andrea and Anne - thanks to both of you - I went with a "normal" interpretation (ie un-fragmented) but made it clear to the PM that the German term was not common/standard. |

pelvicalyceal (renal/central) echo complex obliterated

Der Pyelonreflex (ein definiertes Band im Ultraschall) erscheint normalerweise (also im gesunden Organ) echoreich.
Ich verstehe geschlossen so, dass dieser definierte Bereich im Ultraschallbild aufgrund von krankhaften Veränderungen "ausgelöscht" erscheint, d.h. echoarm.
When renal echograms are made, the central renal pyeloealyceal complex (CRPC) is seen as a strongly echogenic oval confluence surrounded by echo-poor renal parenchyma. Fragmentation of the CRPC is abnormal, and this fragmentation is widely known in association with urinary obstruction. But, there are a variety of nonobstructive causes for dispersion of the CRPC: renal duplication, postobstructive atrophy, chronic pyelonephritis, renal sinus lipomatosis, nephrocalcinosis, and renal cystic disease. Patterns of CRPC fragmentation may be correlated with renal parenchymal status to determine the cause of abnormal renal echograms.

The pelvicalyceal echo complex has a characteristic appearance as an echo-filled cylinder in which minimal sonolucency may normally be seen. Alteration in the pelvicalyceal echo complex is a helpful guide in the diagnosis of a variety of pathological processes involving the kidneys. Reliable diagnosis of moderate and marked hydronephrosis may be made by the appearance of uniformly sized, sonolucent collections in the pelvicalyceal echo complex which show communication with the renal pelvis.
