Renal Urologic Anomalies Presenting In Adult Identical Twins Case Reports Case 2: A 43 year old woman presented to her primary care physician complaining of back pain. An IVP was performed, demonstrating a normal left kidney and absence of the right kidney (Figure 3). There was no past history of urologic disease or surgery. When informed of the result, the woman stated that she had not been previously aware that she only had one kidney, and wondered whether her identical twin sister might be similarly affected. One week later, the twin sister was evaluated with an IVP, demonstrating unilateral absence of the right kidney, and a solitary left kidney almost identical in appearance to that of her sibling (figure 4). Discussion Figure 1 Excretory phase of intravenous "one shot" pyelography demonstrating appearance of obstructed renal pelvis. Note intrauterine fetal bony elements representing third trimester pregnancy. Figure 2 Excretory phase of intravenous pyelography demonstrating obstruction at the ureteropelvic junction.

Renal agenesis in mice homozygous for a gene trap mutation in the gene encoding heparan sulfate 2-sulfotransferase.Heparan sulfate proteoglycans have been implicated in the presentation of a number of secreted signaling molecules to their signal-transducing receptors. We have characterized a gene trap mutation in the gene encoding a heparan sulfate biosynthetic enzyme, heparan sulfate 2-sulfotransferase ( Transgenic mice were generated from embryonic stem cells harboring this insertion. lacZ reporter gene activity in heterozygous embryos demonstrates that the gene is expressed differentially during embryogenesis, presumably directing dynamic changes in heparan sulfate structure. Moreover, mice homozygous for the gene trap allele die in the neonatal period, exhibiting bilateral renal agenesis and defects of the eye and the skeleton. Analysis of kidney development in mutants reveals that the gene is not required for two early events-ureteric bud outgrowth from the Wolffian duct and initial induction of Pax-2 expression in the metanephric mesenchyme.

Teaching File Institute of Radiology "P. Cignolini" - University of Palermo, Italy Hematometrocolpos in uterus didelphys associated with renal agenesis April 5, 1996 Clinical History Female, 12 year old. She complained of an abdominal pain in concomitance with the menstrual cycle; the symptomatology remitted at the end of every cycle. She occasionally had dysuria. A lower abdominal palpable and painful mass was found at physical examination. A compression by an extrinsecal mass on the right wall of the upper vagina was observed at the vaginalscopy. She underwent US examination which showed an oval, liquid mass, with low-level echoes in the pelvis and the emptiness of the right renal fossa. MRI examination was then performed. MR Findings Coronal SE T1W image (TR= 480/600, TE=25, NEX=3 ) Axial FSE T2W image (TR= 2500, TE=110, NEX=3, ETL= 11 ) Sagittal FSE T2W image (TR= 2500, TE= 110, NEX=3, ETL= 11) Coronal T1W image shows the characteristically hyperintense hematometrocolpos (*), the agenesis of the right kidney and the vicar hypertrophy of the controlateral kidney (K). Axial FSE T2W image confirms the presence of a right hematometrocolpos (*) and shows a thin, linear, high signal structure on the left, which indicates the presence of another uterus with its endometrium (arrow). Two separate cervices, joining together at the level of the vagina, were found on the caudal scans.

True renal agenesis is defined as the complete congenital absence of renal tissue, in contrast to acquired absence of renal tissue due to atrophy. Atrophy of sufficient degree to mimic agenesis may occur in conditions such as multicystic dysplastic kidney and ureteropelvic junction obstruction. True agenesis may be the result of failure of formation of the ureteric bud (in which case cystoscopy will reveal a hemitrigone) or due to maldevelopment of the metanephric blastema (in which case partial development of the ureter may be present). Renal agenesis occurs in 1 in 1000 to 5000 births. The male : female ratio is 1.8:1. The condition is slightly commoner on the left side. A familial tendency has been noted. The diagnosis may be suggested on plain radiographs, when the renal outline is absent and the colon is seen to occupy the renal fossa on the affected side. However, the condition is usually detected as an incidental finding on ultrasound, when no kidney can be demonstrated on one side. Intravenous urography, CT ( Fig.1

Bilateral renal agenesis is not compatible with life. The diagnosis is often made antenatally either at routine second trimester ultrasound when reduction or complete absence of liquor will be demonstrated. The kidneys are not seen and enlarged adrenal glands fill the renal fossae. In later pregnancy failure of enlargement of the uterus appropriate for the gestational age, and oligohydramnios are the usual ultrasound findings of the condition. Babies born with this condition usually have typical Potter facies (see Potters syndrome Unilateral renal agenesis is usually asymptomatic the absence of one kidney being diagnosed incidentally. Some cases of unilateral renal agenesis are diagnosed in the antenatal period on routine midtrimester scanning when no kidney is demonstrated on one side of the abdomen. Care must be taken to check all possible sites for the apparently absent kidney including the pelvis and to consider the possibility of a thoracic kidney or crossed fused ectopia. The contralateral kidney in situations of renal agenesis is usually hypertrophied but otherwise normal. Associated renal abnormalities are common. The diagnosis can be made by ultrasound in childhood. On the left the splenic flexure of the colon may fill the renal bed. Diagnosis can be confirmed by

Meconium Peritonitis Calcifications are seen throughout the abdomen in this 17 week fetus with meconium peritonitis Meconium peritonitis in a fetus of 23 weeks gestational age. Numerous calcifications (arrows) are seen adjacent to the liver and anterior abdominal wall Meconium peritonitis in a fetus at 29 weeks gestation. Dilatation of the small bowel and dense calcification is seen within the abdomen Findings: Punctate and linear calcifications are seen throughout the abdomen in this second trimester pregnancy. Discussion: The sonographic findings vary depending on several factors: the etiology, the time interval since perforation and the degree of inflammatory response. It may be seen as early as 13 weeks gestation. In the typical case, diffuse hyperechoic punctate echoes with or without acoustic shadowing may be seen in the abdominal cavity, on the hepatic surface and in the scrotal sac. In addition, depending upon the etiology, ascites, polyhydramnios or fetal bowel distention may be present. Polyhydramnios, reported in approximately 50% of patients, may be caused by by peristaltic deficiency associated with decreased swallowing activity. If the inflammatory response remains localized a meconium pseudocyst may occur. This appears sonographically as a cystic heterogeneous mass with an irregular, calcified wall. The prognosis depends upon the etiology. Bowel perforations may heal and the ascites and bowel dilatation may resolve, leaving only peritoneal calcifications as the only sonographic sign of meconium peritonitis. While cystic fibrosis is universally seen in cases of meconium ileus, it is seen in only 7-40% of cases of meconium peritonitis.
