Abstract
-
It has been suggested that diseased and anomalous kidneys are more susceptible to injury. While horseshoe kidney is the most common congenital anomaly of renal fusion, occurring in about one in every 400-500 births, reports of the horseshoe kidneys associated with renal trauma are rare. Herewe now report our experiences with two cases of renal trauma on horseshoe kidney.
