Cystic dysplasia of the testis associated with multicystic dysplastic kidney.
Cystic dysplasia of the testis (CDT) is a rare congenital defect characterized by the formation of multiple irregular cystic spaces in the mediastinum testis. Co-existent genitourinary lesions have commonly been associated with this lesion and have included absence of the ipsilateral kidney, duplication anomalies, and cryptorchidism. We describe the first case in which multicystic dysplastic kidney (MCDK) is associated with CDT.
