Case Report 


Right thoracic kidney – A rare case report in a female patient

Saikarthik Jayakumar.


Abstract
Ectopic kidneys are one the most common forms of renal anomalies. However, intrathoracic kidneys are extremely rare, especially on the right side. Reporting of such cases is relatively very less common in the literature, particularly in the case of females. The current case is an accidental finding noted in a 56-year-old female who came with complaints of diffuse abdominal pain. An initial ultrasound abdomen revealed an absence of the right kidney in the right renal fossa and computer tomography done later revealed a right intrathoracic kidney with a higher origin of the right renal artery (T12 vertebral level). The right ureter was longer and opened into the bladder normally. The author presents this case because of its anatomical, developmental, and clinical importance.

Key words: Thoracic kidney, Computed tomography, Angiography, Congenital Diaphragmatic Hernia.
