Overview
Horseshoe kidney may be classified into three groups based on:
- morphological appearance of fusion,
- Site of the fusion,
- Vascular supply or angiographic appearance of the vessels.
Classification
Classification according to the morphological appearance:
- :[1]U' Shaped, when the lower poles of symmetrically placed kidneys on either sides of vertebral column,fuse together.
- Inverted 'U' shaped when upper poles of symmetrically placed kidneys on either sides of vertebral column, fuse together.
- 'L' Shaped when one asymmetrical vertically placed kidney fuse with another asymmetrical horizontally placed kidney leading to 'L' shape.
Classification according to the site of fusion:
Horseshoe kidney can also be be classified into two groups, based on the site of fusion:[2][3]
- Symmetrical (mid line fusion)
- Asymmetrical (lateral fusion)
Classification according to the vascular supply:
Graves described 6 basic patterns of arterial supply in horseshoe kidney, by means of resin cast:
[Disease name] may be classified into several subtypes based on:
- [Classification method 1]
- [Classification method 2]
- [Classification method 3]
OR
Based on the duration of symptoms, [disease name] may be classified as either acute or chronic.
OR
If the staging system involves specific and characteristic findings and features:
According to the [staging system + reference], there are [number] stages of [malignancy name] based on the [finding1], [finding2], and [finding3]. Each stage is assigned a [letter/number1] and a [letter/number2] that designate the [feature1] and [feature2].
OR
The staging of [malignancy name] is based on the [staging system].
OR
There is no established system for the staging of [malignancy name].
