The association between ADPKD and horseshoe kidney
is rare (1 in 134,000 to 1 in 8 million cases), and is reported
in fewer than 20 cases in the literature. Co-occurrence of
these diseases may lower the age of renal failure and favour
the occurrence of symptoms. In this case, we performed a
laparoscopic partial nephrectomy of the left renal unit of
the polycystic horseshoe kidney with complete resolution
