The prevailing concept is that lack of fusion of the anterior and posterior renal fasciae caudally (an open cone) allows free communication between the perirenal space and the extraperitoneal portion of the pelvis. However, perirenal disease rarely extends into the pelvis and an open cone has not been observed on CT scans. Accordingly, we determined the anatomy of the caudal extent of the cone of the renal fasciae in cadavers and on CT scans.
