ABSTRACT
A 52-year-old man presented as an intermittent right flank pain and microscopic hematuria on urinalysis. Abdominal ultrasonography showed that the left kidney was normally positioned but the right kidney was not observed in the normal position. The ectopic kidney was 7 cm sized and its pelvis was rotated anteriorly. To further evaluate the urinary system, angiography with urography by computed tomography (CT) was carried out. The ectopic kidney was received blood supply from two arteries which directly arose from the abdominal aorta. There was no detectable abnormality on distal urinary system. The authors report here a rare adult case of ectopic kidney associated with rotation anomaly and aberrant arterial supply presenting as an intermittent flank pain and microscopic hematuira.
