We report two cases of male patients with pelvic ectopic kidney with large stones cleared with laparoscopic-assisted minimally invasive percutaneous nephrolithotomy (Mini-PERC) and holmium laser. These are the first cases of Mini-PERC done for pelvic ectopic kidney reported thus far.

Renal pelvic ectopia has been estimated to occur in 1 of 2100 to 3000 autopsies. Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is a very rare phenomenon in an ectopic kidney. According to our review of literature, there are only seven reports of RCC occurrence in pelvic kidneys. We describe a patient with RCC of presacral ectopic kidney who underwent radical nephrectomy at our medical center.

INTRODUCTION Ectopic pelvic kidneys represent an anatomic variant that remains clinically asymptomatic in most patients. While there is some literature to suggest that ectopic kidneys may be more predisposed to blunt trauma injuries, there are few examples to guide the management of these injuries. To our knowledge, we present the first case of a grade V renal injury to an ectopic pelvic kidney...

Pelvic ectopic kidney associated with giant hydronephrosis is rare. It may be responsible for an extrinsic compression of adjacent structures. The authors report a case of giant hydronephrosis on a left pelvic ectopic kidney caused by obstructive lithiasis in a patient of 25 years. First ultrasound guided percutaneous nephrostomy allowed urinary drainage. Definitive treatment consisted in nephr...

c Abstract: The most common form of renal ectopy is pelvic kidney and treating stone disease and achieving complete stone clearance in such anatomical anomaly is difficult. We report a case of patient with pain in left iliac fossa and evaluation revealed left pelvic kidney with multiple renal calculi. We describe the successful management of calculi with laparoscopic assisted Percutaneous Nephr...

Thoracic ectopic kidney is a rare developmental anomaly that is the least frequent one among all forms of ectopic kidneys. The condition is generally asymptomatic. If a kidney image is missing on one side in renalor pelvic region in sonographic examination, the possibility of thoracic ectopic kidney should be taken into consideration. For final diagnosis, chest radiography and thorax computeris...

A 12-year-old boy presented to the clinic of ophthalmology because of watering and discharge from his left lower eyelid. The inspection examination revealed an orifice that was associated with congenital lacrimal fistula (CLF). He underwent a complete ophthalmologic and systemic evaluation to explore possible associated findings. Systemic evaluation revealed multiple renal anomalies: right rena...

A case of May-Thurner-like syndrome was found to be a result of a pelvic kidney compressing the left common iliac vein. Cross-sectional imaging demonstrated transverse mobility of the pelvic kidney which has not been described previously. The ectopic kidney's mobility resulted in intermittent venous compression. In a patient with recurrent lower extremity deep venous thrombosis and a pelvic kid...
