We report on a patient with a combination of medullary sponge disease and horseshoe kidney. The coexistence of two uncommon conditions of the kidney in this case obscured the clinical picture, and the patient was perhaps subjected to unnecessary invasive tests to establish the diagnosis. Medullary sponge disease occasionally will present as hematuria, and the condition should be kept in mind as a differential diagnosis since it is almost always recognizable on intravenous urography.
我们报告了一例患有髓质海绵肾和马蹄肾合并症的患者。该病例中两种不常见的肾脏疾病并存，使临床表现变得模糊不清，患者可能因此接受了不必要的侵入性检查以明确诊断。髓质海绵肾偶尔会表现为血尿，由于在静脉肾盂造影中几乎总能识别出来，所以在鉴别诊断时应考虑到这种疾病。
