title: Management of ectopic ureterocele with horseshoe kidney.
abstract: The combination of a horseshoe kidney and ureterocele is a rare complex with no definite genetic or developmental association. Only two cases have been reported historically. Diagnosis and treatment of such a complex can be varied amongst providers. We performed a partial nephrectomy with lower pole reimplant after marsupialization of the ureterocele. The patient currently has no evidence of reflux and has been infection free.
