title: [Hydatid cyst and horseshoe kidney: an exceptional association].
abstract: We report on a case of kidney ecchinococosis associated with a horseshoes renal anomaly. The diagnostic procedures used to confirm this association were serological tests, pyelography and computerized tomography. Periquistectomy was done with good recovery of the left renal unit. We believe to report on a pathological association extremely infrequent.
