We report on 3 pediatric patients with multicystic dysplasia involving 1 component of a horseshoe kidney. Including our cases, 18 cases of unilateral multicystic dysplasia in a horseshoe kidney have been reported. The clinical, radiological and pathological features of these cases are briefly reviewed. The association of multicystic dysplastic kidney and horseshoe kidney presents a unique diagnostic challenge. Because of the rarity of unilateral multicystic dysplasia in a horseshoe kidney and the size of the dysplastic component, which crossed the midline in our patients, we chose to excise that component. Cross-sectional imaging techniques, that is computerized tomography and magnetic resonance imaging, were helpful in diagnosis and in planning operative treatment.
我们报告了3例小儿多囊性发育不良累及马蹄肾一个部分的病例。包括我们的病例在内，文献已报道了18例马蹄肾单侧多囊性发育不良。简要回顾了这些病例的临床、放射学及病理学特征。多囊性发育不良肾与马蹄肾的关联带来了独特的诊断挑战。由于马蹄肾单侧多囊性发育不良罕见，且在我们的患者中发育不良部分越过中线，我们选择切除该部分。横断面成像技术，即计算机断层扫描和磁共振成像，有助于诊断和手术治疗规划。
