Fig. 2

Gross appearance of the bisected kidney. The cortical surface is irregular and contracted. The renal parenchyma has multiple erythematous patches (straight arrows). The curve arrow marks the renal pelvic. These patches are compatible with hypodense areas seen in the contrast computed tomographic image and microscopically show endometriosis (The abscess, presents at deeper level, is not shown in this gross picture.)
