title: Polycystic horseshoe kidney.
abstract: It is not uncommon for urologists to be involved in the care of patients with either adult polycystic kidney disease or horseshoe kidney. Personal clinical experience indicates that it is most unusual to have these 2 congenital disorders simultaneously in the same patient. The first known report of such a situation describing removal of a kidney so involved in preparation of renal transplantation is presented.
