Caudal regression syndrome (CRS) is a rare congenital variation. A high incidence of renal and genitourinary malformations has been observed in patients with CRS, with the most common being neurogenic bladder and renal agenesis. We report a rare case report documenting both CRS and a pelvic kidney found during a diagnostic magnetic resonance imaging. Although renal anatomy variants are found in patients with CRS, a pelvic kidney is normally not part of the constellation of findings in this malformation. As seen in our patient, a pelvic kidney should be considered in patients suspected of having CRS.
尾椎退化综合征（CRS）是一种罕见的先天性变异。在CRS患者中观察到肾脏和泌尿生殖系统畸形的发生率很高，最常见的是神经源性膀胱和肾缺如。我们报告了一例罕见病例，记录了在诊断性磁共振成像中发现的CRS和盆腔肾。虽然在CRS患者中发现了肾脏解剖变异，但盆腔肾通常不是这种畸形的一系列表现的一部分。如我们的患者所见，对于疑似患有CRS的患者应考虑盆腔肾的存在。
