Dr. Mamta Arora, Dr. Ani Chandanan, Dr. Priya Garhwal
Abstract: Horse shoe kidney, a rare fusion defect affecting approximately 1:500 individuals, is characterized by the fusion of two kidneys, often located lower and closer to the front of the body than normal. This case report details a 34-year-old female with a horse shoe kidney presenting a primary infertility and recurrent UTIs. Ultrasonography revealed a malrotated left kidney fused with the malrotated right kidney in the midline anterior to the abdominal aorta. Kidney function tests and CT urography confirmed the findings, showing normal kidney function. Consultation with an urologist resulted in regular follow-up recommendations. This case presents an isolated instance of horse shoe kidney without associated congenital anomalies.
