Abstract

We report a 12-year-old girl with a long history of constant urinary dribbling and apparently only a left kidney. Using a multimodality approach involving the fusion of MR urography and (99m)Tc-dimercaptosuccinic acid (DMSA) SPECT datasets, it was finally possible to exactly localize the very small dystopic, dysplastic right kidney and its ectopic ureter draining into the vagina.
