Thoracic left kidney: a differential diagnostic dilemma for thoracic surgeons.

Y K Yalcinbas1, H Sasmaz, S Canbaz.   

Abstract

We report a case of left thoracic kidney that was identified after a detailed workup for a left thoracic mass that appeared on a routine chest roentgenogram of a young adult. Intravenous pyelography and angiography clearly identified this rare anomaly. Anatomical features and clinical implications of this condition are presented.
