MONTELL HERNANDEZ, Oscar Antonio  e  VIDAL TALLET, Arturo. Pyelonephritis in crossed and fusioned renal ectopy: Presentation of a case. Rev. Med. Electrón. [online]. 2010, vol.32, n.4, pp. 0-0. ISSN 1684-1824.

The urinary infection is not only the most frequent bacterial infection, but also the most common disease of the kidneys and the urinary tract in the pediatric age, and a marker or sign of underlying anatomic or functional abnormalities. We present a patient with a diagnosed infection of the urinary tract, associated to a crossed and fusioned renal ectopy with vesical diverticulum, treated in the Teaching Provincial Pediatric Hospital Eliseo Noel Caamaño, of Matanzas, on January 2009. We describe the presentation form, and also the clinical aspects and the imagenologic studies made in a sequential form that allowed us to arrive to the diagnosis of this entity, taking into account its infrequency and that its prevalence is not exactly known.
