Abstract:
When an ectopic kidney is located on the opposite site from its ureteral insertion into the bladder, the condition is known as crossed ectopia. Ninety per cent of crossed ectopic kidneys are fused to the ipsilateral kidney. Herein we report a case of crossed renal ectopia with fusion in a 20 year old male.
