Imaging Diagnosis of Crossed Non‐Fused Renal Ectopia With Hydronephrosis in a Child

Crossed non-fused renal ectopia should be considered in children with unexplained hydronephrosis. Anatomical malposition does not necessarily indicate obstruction; functional assessment with MAG3 renogram is essential to guide appropriate management and avoid unnecessary extensive surgery.

Crossed non-fused renal ectopia should be considered in children with unexplained hydronephrosis. Anatomical malposition does not necessarily indicate obstruction; functional assessment with MAG3 renogram is essential to guide appropriate management and avoid unnecessary extensive surgery.
