Abstract
Congenital urinary malformations associated with congenital heart dise ase are very rare. We present a case of horseshoe and supernumerary ki dney associated with coarctation of aorta diagnosed by a combination o f techniques of teleradiography, aortography, intravenous pyelography, ultrasonography, magnetic resonance imaging, and Dimercapto Succinic Acid (DMSA) and Diethylene Triamine Pentacetate (DTPA) imaging. This c ase represents the first reported instance of horseshoe and supernumer ary kidney associated with coarctation of aorta.
