Overview
The majority of patients with horseshoe kidney are asymptomatic and incidentally detected during renal imaging. However the outcome depends on associated urological problems.
Natural History, Complications, and Prognosis
Natural History
- The majority of patients with horseshoe kidney are asymptomatic and incidentally detected during renal imaging. However the outcome depends on associated urological problems.
Complications
- Common complications of horseshoe kidney include:[1]
- Pelviureteric junction obstruction leading to hydronephrosis
- Vesicoureteric reflux
- Renal stones
- Urinary tract infection
- Increased risk of nephroblastoma and an approximately threefold to fourfold higher risk for cancer of the renal pelvis[2]
- Increased risk for extrarenal disorders that has been associated with horseshoe kidney including:[3]
- Gastrointestinal tract malformations
- Vertebral malformations
- CNS disorders
- Cardiovascular disease
- Increasing association with Wilm's tumor
- Blunt traumatic injury as low positioning prevents protection by ribs[4]
Prognosis
- Prognosis is generally excellent in majority of the patients,without any intervention unless there is an associated complication.[5][6]
