Abstract

Renal ectopia is an uncommon anomaly, with the majority of cases localized to the pelvic region. The thoracic kidney constitutes 5 % of the total kidney mass and typically does not manifest symptoms. Case report, 10-year-old male was referred to the outpatient urology clinic to investigate the absence of the left kidney. At the time of consultation, no respiratory or urological symptoms were reported. Chest CT revealed a left kidney located in the thoracic region without evidence of lithiasis or hydronephrosis. In conclusion diagnosis of thoracic renal ectopia is usually incidental, and expectant management is recommended in asymptomatic patients.

摘要

肾异位是一种罕见的异常情况，大多数病例局限于盆腔区域。胸内肾占肾脏总数的5%，通常无明显症状。病例报告：一名10岁男性因左肾缺如被转诊至泌尿外科门诊。会诊时，未报告有呼吸或泌尿系统症状。胸部CT显示左肾位于胸腔内，无结石或肾积水迹象。总之，胸内肾异位的诊断通常是偶然的，对于无症状患者建议采取观察等待的处理方式。
