Unfused, crossed renal ectopia is a rare kidney variant that can mimic an abdominal mass. This case highlights the importance of advanced imaging in diagnosing such complex renal anomalies.

Area of Science:

  • Nephrology
  • Radiology
  • Medical Imaging

Background:

  • Anatomic variants of the kidneys are frequently identified during diagnostic imaging.
  • These variations can impact renal function and complicate clinical interpretation.

Observation:

  • A case of unfused, crossed renal ectopia was observed in an elderly female patient.
  • The condition presented clinically as a potential abdominal mass.

Findings:

  • Computed tomography (CT), ultrasound, and scintigraphy were utilized for evaluation.
  • Diagnostic imaging confirmed the presence of crossed renal ectopia.

Implications:

  • Accurate diagnosis of renal anomalies is crucial for appropriate patient management.
