“…Unilateral renal agenesis is often asymptomatic and may go undiagnosed until later in life, when incidental findings during medical investigations shed light on the condition. [1][2][3] Although the exact etiology of renal agenesis is not fully understood, it is believed that both genetic and environmental factors contribute to its development. Mutations in certain genes, such as Rearranged during Transfection (RET) and Bone Morphogenic Protein 4 (BMP4), have been implicated in some cases of renal agenesis.…”

“…1 Additionally, maternal exposure to teratogenic substances, maternal diabetes, and maternal smoking during pregnancy have also been suggested as potential risk factors. 2,3 The clinical implications of renal agenesis can vary depending on the presence or absence of the contralateral kidney and any associated abnormalities. Individuals with unilateral renal agenesis generally lead normal lives without significant renal complications, as the remaining kidney compensates for the loss of function.…”

Renal agenesis refers to the congenital absence or complete failure of development of one or both kidneys. It occurs when the kidneys fail to form during embryonic development. This case report describes the presentation of a 23-year-old male patient who experienced sporadic episodes of abdominal pain on the right side and occasional episodes of hematuria. Diagnostic investigations, including ultrasonography and magnetic resonance imaging scans, confirmed the diagnosis of right renal agenesis. The management of the patient in this case report involved close monitoring of renal function and regular follow-up visits. Initially, the patient was followed for a period of 3 months and based on the patient’s clinical status and any associated risk factors, it was determined that a follow-up schedule of visits every 6 months is appropriate. This interval allows for ongoing assessment of renal function and facilitates early detection of any potential complications or changes in kidney health. This case highlights the importance of early diagnosis, comprehensive management, and long-term monitoring in individuals with renal agenesis.

Unilateral renal agenesis is a very rare condition with a reported incidence of 0.93-1.8 per 1000 autopsies and is very less common then bilateral renal agenesis.We are reporting a case of a 38 years old male patient who presented with epigastric pain and burning micturition since 10 days. Radiological imaging showed absent left kidney with blind ending remnant of completely developed ureteric bud noted incidentally.
