Abstract

Multicystic back masses can be of infectious, metastatic, or local pre- or malignant origin. We present a case of a rapidly evolving mass in a hemodialysis patient with severe "chronic kidney disease-associated mineral bone disease" (CKD-MBD), that also highlights limitations of chest x-ray for diagnosis of bone disease.

Keywords: Chronic kidney disease‐related mineral bone disease; end‐stage renal disease; hemodialysis; multicystic back mass
