Neoplasia in horseshoe kidney with pyelic fusion and crossed single ureter

Abstract: Horseshoe kidney with pyelic fusion and crossed single ureter is a rare anomaly, with only 3 cases described in the literature. Such anomaly can be accompanied by other abnormalities, such as congenital scoliosis and situs inversus totalis. We present one case of this malformation associated with malignant neoplasia, treated with partial nephrectomy.

“…UPJ obstruction can occur when a high insertion of ureters into the kidney pelvis causes delayed pelvic emptying. Another rare cause of obstruction can be the crossing of the ureter over the HSK isthmus (Costa et al, 2004). A diagnosis of UPJ obstruction is made based on a CT urography or intravenous pyelography with a typical appearance of a large pelvis with a high-riding ureter in the pelvis.…”

“…UPJ obstruction is secondary to a high insertion of ureters into the kidney pelvis, which causes delayed pelvic emptying. Another cause of obstruction can be the crossing of the ureter over the HSK isthmus (Costa et al, 2004).
