Crossed renal ectopia without fusion associated with carcinoma of the renal pelvis a case report

ABSTRACT A 3 year old female feline of mixed breed was sent to the diagnostic imaging sector under suspicion of bleeding due to ovariohysterectomy. An abdominal ultrasonography was performed to confirm the initial suspicion. However, no signs of bleeding were found, instead it was observed that the left renal silhouette had two pelvises and was elongated and larger than normal. The right kidney was not found. Excretory urography was requested to evaluate the condition of the ureters. The final diagnosis was crossed renal ectopia with fusion in an asymptomatic cat with no changes in renal function.

Unusual Type

Herein we present a case of crossed renal ectopia with an unusual type of fusion, discovered incidentally in a 11-year-old girl presented with recurrent urinary tract infections. Both kidneys were located on the right side of the body fused in their upper poles only, forming an inverted U shape. After reviewing the published data on this topic, we found that most of the described anomalies were within the six well-known types of fusion anomalies. This child had an unusual clinical presentation of severe hydronephrosis of the orthotopic kidney. A unique surgical technique to correct the pathology to be able to preserve the residual mass of that kidney was performed.

Spontaneous Delivery

Hypertension is not found commonly in infants under 1 year of age. Renovascular type of hypertension is extremely rare in this age group. A 3-month-old male infant is presented who developed hypertension secondary to the unilateral anomaly of crossed renal ectopia. This was associated with two other developmental anomalies, imperforate anus Type III-B and rectourethral fistula. The hypertension was treated successfully by surgery. Case Report A male infant, the full-term product of a 34-year-old G6P4A1 mother, was born by normal spontaneous delivery, weighing 5 pounds 8½ ounces. Physical examination was entirely normal except for the presence of an imperforate anus which subsequently proved to be Type III-B.

Crossed Fused Renal Ectopia

Cake kidney or complete crossed fused renal ectopia refers to complete fusion of both kidneys and remain on the same side of the midline. It is due to failure of normal renal ascent during embryogenesis with fusion of kidneys within the renal pelvis.1,2 We present a case of 18years old male with heaviness in right lumbar region and CECT was done which showed complete crossed renal ectopia.3
