Cake kidney: MDCT urography for diagnosis.
Cake (fused pelvic) kidney is an uncommon congenital anomaly. Early diagnosis and recognition of potential complications that may accompany this anomaly are important to prevent permanent renal impairment. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report on a case of cake kidney that was diagnosed by multidetector row computed tomographic urography.
