Abstract

Arterial connection between the left and right kidneys is extremely rare. Only eight cases of such anomalous conditions have been reported in the world literature and all were confirmed by invasive angiography or dissection. We report a patient with this vascular anomaly clearly demonstrated by 16-slice multidetector computed tomography.
