There is severe rt renomegaly. The L kidney also appears more plump/round than normal.
DDx for renomegaly include neoplasia, hydronephrosis, and pyelonephritis. Pyelo would NOT cause such severe enlargment. I think it’s either of the two first ddx.

Yes, it is severe renomegaly, and unlikely to be caused solely by pyelonephritis. I agree that the left kidney is abnormal in shape as well, though it doesn’t appear enlarged in length. Check the MIRC site for the answer.
