Unfused Crossed Renal Ectopia with Ipsilateral Anorchia–A Rare Entity

The reported incidence of unfused crossed renal ectopia is 1 in 75,000 autopsies. A majority of such cases go unnoticed, as they remain asymptomatic and are found incidentally at autopsy. We have presented such a case for its rarity, unusual presentation and association, and have discussed it in l...

In this report, a 7–year–old boy was pre–operatively diagnosed as having left crossed renal ectopia with a cryptorchid left testis. At surgery, we noticed an ectopic, hydronephrotic left kidney with an absent left testis. Left Nephrectomy was performed, based on findings of a DTPA scan which was done. Post–operative course was uneventful. Histopathology revealed chronic pyelonephritis without any evidence of dysplastic changes.https://jcdr.net/articles/PDF/3397/62-%206140_E(C)_F(P)_PF1(P.r_P)_PFA(NC).pdfcrossed renal ectopiadtpapyelonephritis
