We present a case of vaginal ectopic ureter with ipsilateral partial duplication of the upper ureter (Y-type ureter), ipsilateral hypoplastic pelvic kidney and bicornuate uterus in a 20-year-old woman who presented with mild urinary incontinence since infancy. Ultrasonography, computed tomography and intravenous pyelography examination showed a left kidney with no evidence of a right kidney. Cy...

We report a patient who was admitted to the department of medicine with palpitation, dyspnea and left flank pain, Chest X-ray revealed a mass in the left lung. The lesion was evaluated as a pulmonary tumor, with a high suspicion of malignancy. Intravenous urography, sonography, and CTscanning revealed a thoracic kidney at the location previously thought to be a lung mass. This is the firs...

We present a case of renal stone associated with bilateral pelvic diverticula. The initial diagnosis by ultrasonography and plain abdomen radiography (KUB) was urolithiasis with a 15-mm calculus in the right renal pelvis. The patient was referred for extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy, but no stone fragments were yielded. So, further evaluations were performed by using repeated ultrasonograp...

Two studies were carried out in which 27 and 23 patients respectively with renal space-occupying lesions were assessed by different techniques and the results compared. Instead of proceeding to renal arteriography after the lesion had been found on urography, radionuclide and ultrasound scanning were used in the first study to clarify the nature of the lesions, while in the second study compute...

Between 1988 and 1999, renal sonography and intravenous urography were performed to detect renal malformations in 54 patients with Turner's syndrome (TS). The mean age of these patients at diagnosis of TS was 9.2 +/- 4.6 years. Renal malformations were detected in 21 patients by intravenous urography and there was no significant difference in the frequency of renal malformations among different...
