Horseshoe kidney and abdominal aortic aneurysm
Tirilomis T., Zenker D., Friedrich M., Stojanovic T., Schoendube F. A.
Department for Thoracic, Cardiac, and Vascular Surgery, University of Goettingen, Goettingen, Germany
The coexistence of horseshoe kidney and abdominal aortic aneurysm is rare and poses a technical challenge at the time of surgery. The preoperative diagnosis of this association facilitates surgical management. The case of a 75-year-old man with additionally progressive iliacal artery occlusive disease is presented. Even in cases without peripheral arterial occlusive disease angiography is indicated to define arterial supply of the horseshoe kidney.
