Area of Science:

  • Nephrology
  • Urology
  • Surgical Anatomy

Background:

  • Extrarenal calyces represent an extremely rare congenital anomaly of the kidney.
  • Few cases have been documented globally, highlighting its rarity.

Observation:

  • This report details a specific case of an individual presenting with extrarenal calyces.
  • The case presentation is accompanied by a concise review of existing medical literature on the topic.

Findings:

  • The primary finding is the confirmation of an extrarenal calyceal structure in the reported case.
  • Literature review reinforces the infrequent occurrence and diagnostic challenges associated with this anomaly.

Implications:

  • Increased awareness of extrarenal calyces among healthcare professionals is essential.
  • Knowledge of this anomaly can significantly reduce the risk of iatrogenic injury to the pelvicalyceal system during abdominal surgeries.
