Abstract
The diagnosis nephroptosis, as well as surgical treatment of the condition, has been profoundly questioned in recent decades. Here, we report on a cas e of nephropexy in a young woman with nephroptosis with complete resolution of symptoms and with correction of preoperatively abnormal Tc-99m-DMSA sca n and renal arterial Doppler examination.
