Abstract

A case of fused pelvic (discoid) kidney drained by a superiorly inserted single ureter is presented. This is the twentieth case of fused pelvic kidney, and the fifth case in which drainage was carried out by a single ureter, to be reported in the English literature. The diagnosis and treatment of this condition is discussed and the relevant literature is reviewed.
