Spanish term or phrase: con desarrollo de aliectasia aislada polar superior
Medical report from Chile, involving a medical examination on the kidneys. Here's the text (before the diagnosis section). Here's the text:

"Ambos riñones de tamaño normal. Quistes corticales renales bilaterales, algunos de ellos hemorrágicos. Extenso tumor infiltrativo del riñón derecho que mide al menos 7 cm en el eje mayor de carácter hipovascular, el que presenta signos de infiltración del seno renal con desarrollo de caliectasia aislada polar superior. Se observan dos pequeñas imágenes nodulares en el tejido adiposo pararrenal derecho de hasta 10 mm de diámetro mayor ¿pequeños implantes? "

My thought is to render as "with superior isolated polar caliectasis developing" but "aliectasia aislada polar superior" where I'm lost.

agree  Neil Ashby: But it's "focal caliectasis" rather than "isolated"... I've just noticed that you include that info in one of your example sentences.

  -> OK, but "isolated" works for me as a synonym...
