Clinical signs of renal disease in the green iguana (Iguana iguana). (A) Caudal coelomic masses (arrows) due to enlarged kidneys protruding from their normal intrapelvic location. (B) Buccal examination revealing pharyngeal edema (arrow) due to hypoproteinemia, secondary to a protein-losing nephropathy. (Courtesy of Stephen J Hernandez-Divers, University of Georgia.)

Digital cloacal palpation in a sedated adult iguana (Iguana iguana) is a useful technique for evaluating the size and contours of the intrapelvic kidneys. (Insert) Dissection of the iguanid pelvic region. The ventral abdominal wall and pelvis have been removed to demonstrate the position of the intrapelvic kidneys.

Horizontal beam, lateral radiographs of two different green iguanas (Iguana iguana) with renomegaly. A – plain radiograph illustrating an increase in soft tissue density in the caudodorsal coelom (arrows), suggestive of renomegaly. (B) Contrast radiograph (intravenous urogram using iohexol) demonstrating renomegaly. (Courtesy of Stephen J Hernandez-Divers, University of Georgia.)

Dorsoventral radiograph of a 4-year-old female iguana with a distended colon (DC) due to bilateral enlarged kidneys and a left renal cyst (C). Contrast medium was injected into the cyst under ultrasound guidance. There was some subcapsular leakage of the contrast medium. (Courtesy of Nico J. Schoemaker, Utrecht University.)

Ultrasonogram of a green iguana (Iguana iguana) with bilateral renal enlargement. Note the left (L) and right (R) kidneys lying ventrolateral to the spine (S), and dorsal to the bladder. The intrarenal veins can also be identified (arrows). (Courtesy of Stephen J Hernandez-Divers, University of Georgia.)
