Pelvic kidney and aorto-iliac aneurysm--a rare association--case report and literature review.
Association of a congenital pelvic kidney with abdominal aortic aneurysm is rare and to date only a handful cases have been reported in literature. We report one such case, which was successfully treated using the technique of temporary extra-anatomical perfusion of the kidney.
