[Pathological pelvic kidney. Apropos of 11 cases].
The diseases ectopic kidney is a rare malformation. It can be associated with other urological or nonurological malformation. We report 11 cases observed between 1980 and 1998. They were five females and six males with a mean age of 28 years. The clinical symptomatology was dominated by pain and urinary symptoms. Diagnosis was based on the IVP data and ultrasonography. Renal stone and hynronephrosis were each associated in five cases and one patient had renal stone associated with hydronephrosis. The treatment consisted on a iliopelvic approach and extraction of the stone and or pyeloplasty. In three cases a nephrectomy was realised for muet kidney or pyonephrosis. The outcome was good in ten cases and one patient had a pyelo-ureteral secondary stenosis managed by endoscopy.
