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.

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.

Placental mesenchymal dysplasia (PMD) is a rare placental disorder that may coexist with a normal fetus but is frequently associated with fetal growth restriction, fetal demise, prematurity, and Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome, as well as with various fetal anatomical and vascular anomalies. In this case, ultrasonography performed at 14 weeks of gestation revealed multiple, variable sized cysts in the placenta along with a morphologically normal fetus. Serial sonographic examinations found that the fetus became small for gestational age and had a dysplastic right kidney. After delivery at 33 weeks of gestation, histopathologic examination of the placenta showed enlarged, hydropic stem villi with cavity formation and absence of trophoblastic proliferation and pseudoinclusions, all of which were consistent with PMD. Neonatal abdominal ultrasonography showed multiple cysts in the right kidney consistent with a multicystic dysplastic condition. This appears to be the first case of PMD associated with fetal multicystic dysplastic kidney.

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.
