[A CASE REPORT: LITHIASIS OF THE LEFT ECTOPIC PELVIC KIDNEY].

We report a case of lithiasis of the left ectopic pelvic kidney. A 70-year-old man was admitted to our department for left lower back pain. He has been aware of gross hematuria since three or four years before. Computed tomography demonstrated the left ectopic pelvic kidney with a 16-mm stone and a 5-mm stone in the renal pelvis which was accompanied by hydronephrosis. Ten days later, the renal pelvic stones moved to the renal calices and the symptoms disappeared. Though a pyeloureteral junction obstruction was not evident, renogram showed a obstruction pattern of the left kidney. He had been followed up for six years, then the stone was impacted in the renal pelvis and hydronephrosis worsened. Open pyelolithotomy was performed. His clinical course was uneventful and no evidence of recurrence has been observed.
