| pubmed-article:15333222 | pubmed:abstractText | Horseshoe kidneys are the most common renal fusion anomalies. In surgery on normal kidneys, the use of minimally invasive techniques has decreased morbidity and improved postoperative care. However, aberrant vasculature, abnormal kidney location, and the renal isthmus present technical challenges to the laparoscopic management of horseshoe kidneys. We describe a case of heminephrectomy using hand-assisted laparoscopic techniques. | lld:pubmed |
