Congenital anomalies of the kidney and the urinary tract such as renal agenesis and ectopic ureter have complex development. These anomalies have variable presentations and associations. In this report, we highlight the case of a young man with congenital renal agenesis presenting for a urinary tract infection. Abdominal and pelvic computed tomography imaging revealed the rare association of renal agenesis with contralateral ectopic ureter and subsequent hydroureteronephrosis. A urinary tract infection can be the presenting complication of such association, and a long follow-up is needed to anticipate the management.
肾脏和尿路的先天性异常，如肾缺如和异位输尿管，其发育过程复杂。这些异常有多种表现形式和关联情况。在本报告中，我们重点介绍了一名因尿路感染就诊的先天性肾缺如青年男性病例。腹部和盆腔计算机断层扫描成像显示，肾缺如与对侧异位输尿管及随后的输尿管肾盂积水罕见地同时存在。尿路感染可能是这种关联情况的首发并发症，需要长期随访以规划治疗方案。
