Horseshoe kidney is the most common of all renal fusion anomalies, occurring in approximately 0.25% of the general population. Horseshoe kidney with only a single ureter is a rare anomaly. A 60-year-old man was admitted to hospital for routine health screening. His family history was negative for kidney diseases, and there was no abnormality in his physical examination. A computed tomography (CT) scan revealed an atypical horseshoe kidney with cysts and three-dimensional spiral CT reconstruction showed the presence of a single ureter. The patient has since been followed up for two years without any signs of clinical disease. We report a rare case of a patient with a horseshoe kidney with cysts and a single ureter that was diagnosed incidentally.
马蹄肾是所有肾融合畸形中最常见的，在普通人群中的发生率约为0.25%。仅有一条输尿管的马蹄肾是一种罕见的畸形。一名60岁男性因常规健康筛查入院。他的家族史中无肾脏疾病，体格检查也无异常。计算机断层扫描（CT）显示为非典型马蹄肾伴囊肿，三维螺旋CT重建显示存在一条输尿管。此后该患者已随访两年，无任何临床疾病迹象。我们报告一例罕见的偶然诊断为伴有囊肿和单条输尿管的马蹄肾患者。
