Unenhanced computed tomography scan of the chest (a coronal and b sagittal) and of the abdomen (c coronal and d sagittal), done on different dates, showing colonic loops (C in a) and accompanying fat (F in a, b) within the right hemithorax. The anterior portion of the diaphragm is present (thin arrows in b) over the liver (L), while the posterior portion is absent. Imaged portions of the upper abdomen show an exophytic multilocular/complex cystic lesion (thick arrows in a, b, and d), arising from the upper pole of the kidney (K) and abutting the liver (L). A similar lesion is seen in the subcutaneous tissue of the lower abdomen (arrowhead in c)
