[Uterus duplex and unilateral agenesies of the kidney in two sisters (author's transl)].

The article describes uterus duplex and unilateral agenesis of the kidney in two sisters. Although this combined malformation has been described in literature in about 100 cases, it would seem that it occurred in one and the same family in only one case, namely, in mother and daughter. If agenesis of the kidney or a malformation of the uterus is found in a patient, the physician should look for a combined malformation in other members of the family.
