Multilocular renal cyst associated with transposition of the inferior vena cava and malrotation of the bowel.
A case is presented of an adult male patient with a heavily calcified multilocular renal cyst (Permann's tumor), transposition of the inferior vena cava and reversed rotation (malrotation) of the bowel. Because of the synchronous embryological development of the forementioned structures, a possible congenital etiology of the multilocular renal cyst is suggested.
