Abstract:
During embryologic development, many renal anomalies, including fusion and ectopia, can occur. Among them, fused cake kidney is a rare developmental anomaly. We report a case in which this condition was combined with hypoplastic thumb. Ultrasonographic, scintigraphic, CT and MRI findings of this rare condition are presented.
