Abstract BackgroundIntrathoracic kidney (ITK) associated with congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) is rare congenital anomaly and usually requires surgery. The surgical methods and approaches are diverse.Case presentationWe reported a case of a 5-year-old boy who was diagnosed as right-sided ITK with CDH. Surgical treatment was performed by combined thoracoscopic and laparoscopic approach. Anatomical reposition of the right kidney and nephropexy were carried out under laparoscopy, and repair of the hernia was performed under thoracoscopy. The postoperative recovery was uneventful and long-term follow-up demonstrated normal function and development of the kidney.ConclusionCombined thoracoscopic and laparoscopic approach is minimally invasive and effective for treatment of ITK associated with CDH. It provides better visualization of the diaphragmatic foramen and the hernia sac, and can achieve anatomical reposition and fixation of the ectopic kidney.
