Alagille Syndrome (OMIM 118450) is a multisystem developmental disorder inherited in an autosomal dominant pattern with variable expression. It commonly manifests in children with early cholestatic jaundice due to paucity of interlobular biliary ducts. Renal involvement is less common but can take various forms including renovascular disease, renal agenesis or hypoplasia, cystic renal disease, ...

Most cases of double uterus with obstructed hemivagina and ipsilateral renal agenesis were diagnosed at adolescents after menarche. This is the first reported case of complete septate uterus with obstructed hemivagina and ipsilateral renal agenesis in addition to ipsilateral agenesis of fallopian tube and ovary in which the diagnosis was delayed until pregnancy. The pregnancy was uneventful in ...

I have read with interest the case report “Bilateral multicystic renal dysplasia with Potter sequence. A case with penile agenesis” by Dursun et al.1 The authors stated that the case “provides most symptoms of bilateral multicystic hereditary renal adysplasia (HRA)”. Although most cases of renal adysplasia (agenesis/ dysplasia) are sporadic, some cases are inherited. Hereditary renal adysplasia...

Congenital absence of the vas occurs in up to 1% of men. Congenital unilateral absence of the vas deferens can be related to cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator mutations or in 79% of cases, renal agenesis. We present a case of each, diagnosed in children at operation for elective inguinal hernia repairs. One patient had associated ipsilateral renal agenesis with a normal cystic...

Sirenomelia, the Mermaid Syndrome is a rare and lethal congenital anomaly with an incidence of one in 60,000 to 70,000 pregnancies. Sirenomelia is characterized by complete fusion of the lower limbs, commonly associated with renal agenesis, absent external genitalia and other gastrointestinal defects. Another pathognomonic finding is the presence of single umbilical, persistent vitelline artery...

A man with Klippel-Feil deformity, unilateral renal agenesis, and azoospermia is presented as a possible case of MURCS.

We report a case of laparoendoscopic single-site surgery (LESS) for a symptomatic left seminal vesicular cyst and ipsilateral renal agenesis. A 49-year-old man presented with a 1-year history of severe irritation upon voiding and intractable, recurrent hematospermia. A computed tomography scan showed a 68×41×38 mm sized left seminal vesicular cyst with ipsilateral renal agenesis. LESS was perfo...

A 10-month-old female toy poodle was referred to the University of Tokyo Veterinary Medical Center with a urogenital anomaly found during sterilization. An exploratory laparotomy revealed a cyst adhering to the cervix and a unilateral renal agenesis. Histopathology and immunohistochemical analysis of the cyst was consistent with remnants of the Wolffian duct or a Gartner duct cyst. This is a ra...

Herlyn-Werner-Wunderlich (HWW) syndrome is a rare developmental anomaly that includes uterus didelphys with obstructed hemivagina and ipsilateral renal agenesis. A 13-year-old girl presented with chronic abdominal pain. Magnetic resonance imaging revealed uterus didelphys, hematometrocolpos and renal agenesis on the right side with imperforate hymen. Subsequently the patient was found to have M...

Mayer Rokitansky Kuster Houser syndrome (MRKH syndrome) is characterized by Mullerian duct structures agenesis, vaginal atresia being the commonest variant. It can be associated with renal, skeletal, spine and other malformations. Patient with Mayer Rokitansky syndrome has a varied presentation from newborn period to adolescence. Thorough investigations are required for classification of the sy...
