Overview
Horseshoe kidney is a fairly common condition among other renal fusion abnormalities. Males cases are twice more common than female cases. Although it has been seen in members of same families, but no any particular gene has been found to cause this disease.
Epidemiology and Demographics
Incidence
- The incidence of horseshoe kidney in the population is estimated to be 500 cases per 100,000 births. It is estimated that there was a total 1,600 births based on autopsy data from the 1940s and 1950s.[1][2]
Age
- Horseshoe kidney is a congenital anomaly result from disruption of the normal embryologic migration of the kidneys.
Race
- There is no racial predilection to horseshoe kidney although it has been reported in identical twins and in sibling within same family.[3]
Gender
- Males are more commonly affected by horseshoe kidney than females.[4] The male to female ratio is approximately 2 to 1.
