Abstract
-
A 30 years old male suffering from renal pain, hematuria and frequency of urination, was found to have horseshoe kidney with renal tuberculosis. The diagnosis was made through urinalysis, intra-venous pyelography and retrograde pyelography. This is a report of the good results gained by partial nephrectomy and antituberculous chemotherapy. It was compared with several literary reviews.
