Abstract:
Renal Ectopia is a rare developmental anomaly, leading to failure of mature kidney to reach its normal location within the renal fossa. Most ectopic kidneys are asymphtomatic and gets diagnosed as incidental finding on radiography or at surgery. The incidence of RCC in ectopic kidney are very uncommon, presenting with atypical symptoms causes a diagnostic as well as therapeutic dilemma in front of urologists. We present a case of 65 years old gentleman, having complaints of hematuria having heterogeneously enhancing SOL in left pelvic ectopic kidney.
