Abstract:

Two sets of identical adult twins recently presented to our hospital. In one case, the patients demonstrated (ipsilateral) renal agenesis. In the other, the patients presented approximately one year apart with symptomatic (ipsilateral) ureteropelvic junction obstructions. Although the literature suggests a few reports of this type in the pediatric and newborn population, the authors are unaware of similar reports in adults.
