Abstract
BELTRAN ARMADA, J.R. et al. Pyeloureteral duplication and intrathoracic kidney. Actas Urol Esp [online]. 2004, vol.28, n.3, pp.249-251. ISSN 0210-4806.
Intrathoracic ectopia is an unusual ectopia that represents less than 5% of renal ectopia. The association of a duplex system and an intrathoracic renal ectopia is very rare. We report a case of a girl affected from these two anormalyties, being the first case published in the literature reviewed. Presentation, diagnosis and therapeutic aspects are discussed.
