There are many renal diseases in which calcification can be found and a lot of literatures about them. However, ossifying lesions of the kidney are extremely rare, only several cases of osteogenic sarcoma of the kidney and three cases of ossifying renal tumor in infant have been reported in the literature. Herein, we report a case of ossifying lesion of the kidney in a 34 year-old man.

There have only been 35 pediatric cases and one adult case reported on segmental multicystic dysplastic kidney (MCDK) from our search in PubMed, including 19 cases detected antenatally. There is little documentation of segmental MCDK, particularly concerning its natural history. Segmental MCDK can be presented atypically, making diagnosis more difficult. We report an another case with segmental MCDK. Multicystic abdominal mass detected on antenatal sonogram in this infant was diagnosed as segmental MCDK by renal ultrasonography and computed tomography. If a definitive diagnosis of segmental MCDK can be made on imaging, surgery is not required for a diagnostic biopsy.

Multicystic dysplastic kidney is the most frequent cause of abdominal mass in the neonate, but its presentation is variable depending on the size of cystic kidney, state of the opposite kidney and associated anomalies. multicystic dysplastic kidney also represents a spectrum of pathology from unilateral multicystic kidney through segmental and focal multicystic dysplasia to bilateral multicystic kidney. Herein we report 5 cases of MCK with different presentation and histology, a bilateral MCK associated with horseshoe kidney, a large MCK with uremia, a focal segmental MCK with contralateral UPJ obstruction, a small focal segmental MCK with contralateral megaureter and a small MCK detected by ultrasonogram for localization of impalpable testis.

During the last decade, with the advent of prenatal ultrasound, multicystic dysplastic kidney is diagnosed with increasing frequency But the management of multicystic dysplastic kidney continues to be an ongoing controversy regarding both its cause and its current management. Herein we reviewed the records of four cases at our hospital between 1983-1993. All were unilateral and three cases were removed surgically and last one was observed and followed up only. The first case was a ten-month-old girl who was referred to our department because of hydronephrosis of kidney. The second was a five-year-old boy with chief complaints of flank pain. The third was a three-month-old girl, and the fourth was a two-day-old girl. Last two cases were referred to our department because of a sustained cystic dilatation of kidney detected by prenatal ultrasonography.

Multilocular cystic renal cell carcinoma is a distinct subtype of renal cell carcinoma with its pathological characteristics and good prognosis. Multilocular renal cysts and renal cell carcinoma with cystic change are important differential diagnoses. We report a case of multilocular cystic renal cell carcinoma in a 37-year-old woman who came to the hospital because of the right renal mass. The removed right kidney showed a 6x4 cm well defined cystic mass in the lower pole. On cut section there were multiple cavities in the mass, filled with serosanguineous fluid and focal yellowish solid area. Microscopically, these cysts were lined by a single layer of flat or cuboidal cells consisted of clear cytoplasm with small central nuclei. In some portions of the tumor, the clear neoplastic cells formed sheets within the septa or walls of the cysts.

Renal dysplasia results from aberrant metanephric histogenesis caused fundamentally by a defect in inducer tissue or responding tissue. Dysplastic kidneys vary tremendously in gross and microscopic appearance but are characterized by abnormal organization and a mixed population of primitive structures, such as fetal or immature cartilage, dysplastic ducts, immature tubules, and undifferentiated mesenchyme. We report a case of unilateral multicystic renal dysplasia associated with an ipsilateral ectopic ureteral orifice entering a seminal vesicle cyst in a 33-year-old man. He was admitted due to primary infertility which had developed three years ago. The his semen analysis revealed oligospermia. No evidence of a family history of renal dysplasia was reported. Microscopic examination showed that the entire kidney was composed of cysts lined by flattened cells, dysplastic ducts and immature tubules surrounded by collars of spindle cells, primitive mesenchyme, and a few aberrantly formed glomeruli.

Although there are many reports of concomitant urinary and reproductive system malformations, a review of the literature shows these unique associations in a single patient are extremely rare. We report here on a case of unilateral partial duplicated vaginal ectopic ureter with ipsilateral dysplastic kidney and uterine didelphys in an 11 years old female patient who has suffered from persistent urinary incontinence since birth. The embryological aspects as well as the clinical presentation, diagnostic approach and treatment applicable for this group of patients are discussed.
