to our knowledge, bilateral supernumerary kidney is a very rare renal abnormality and there are five cases presented in the literature. it is difficult to diagnose supernumerary kidney and clinicians have not detected most cases preoperatively. laboratory and imaging studies were acquired and carefully examined. the normal laboratory tests were found. emergency ultrasonography was performed and...

Urogenital anomalies are frequent and correspond to 33% of all congenital anomalies (1). Horseshoe kidney and renal crossed ectopy with fusion are the most frequent renal anomalies (2). Supernumerary kidney is the rarest renal anomaly and it can be encapsulated or totally apart from the original kidney or connected to it by a sheath of connective tissue. Usually the supernumerary kidney is loca...

A partially fused supernumerary kidney with bifid ureters was diagnosed in a 35-year-old female patient using ultrasound and triple-phased computed tomography (CT). The CT also revealed two separate renal arteries supplying each of the left kidney and multiple left renal veins, forming a common trunk to drain into the inferior vena cava. Supernumerary kidney is a rare congenital anomaly; fewer ...

Supernumerary kidney is the rarest of all renal anomalies; fewer than 80 cases have been reported in the literature over the years. Supernumerary kidneys are most commonly located on the left side of the abdomen. Different pathologic conditions are reported to affect supernumerary kidneys and they may be associated with malformations of the upper urinary tract and genital tract. Because of thei...

The supernumerary kidney is an accessory organ with its own blood supply and collecting system. It is a very rare type of congenital renal anomaly with fewer than 100 cases reported since firstly described at 1656 (1). Embryological basis of supernumerary kidney is connected to the abnormal division of the nephrogenic cord into two metanephric blastemas which will form two kidneys (2). It may b...

Pieces of kidney and/or lung from adult frog (Rana pipiens) when implanted under the dorsal skin of the lower arm (mid-radius/ulna level) of Ambystoma maculatum larvae, induced supernumerary limbs in over 75% of the cases. Liver was completely ineffective in inducing ability. However, liver did not lower the inducing capacity of lung in combination grafts. When the insertion hole was distal to ...

Supernumerary kidneys are very rare renal malformations, little described in the literature. Its diagnosis is difficult, most often discovered during a radiological exploration either fortuitously or complication. We report case of bilateral supernumerary on fused crossed ectopia right kidney diagnosed by ultrasound and computed tomography Bamako 16-year-old girl. The objective this work to pro...
