"This condition is sometimes differentiated from megapolycalycosis which means "enlarged and numerous calyces." Some have differentiated between "megacalycosis" (large calyces, but normal number of calyces) and "polycalycosis" (greater than normal number of calyces, but normal size). Congenital megacalyces in this scheme would be "megacalycosis." It is unclear how often polycalycosis occurs; this condition is, at most, extremely rare."

"In addition to enlargement of the calyces, there is often also polycalycosis (increased number of calyces); they are crowded and multifaceted with a mosaic-like appearance."
