Résumé :

The authors report the case of a young male patient hospitalized for the work up of a hypogastric tender mass. The diagnosis was brought up by a retrograde ureteropyelography which showed a right pyonephrotic pelvic kidney with fistulisation into the genu inferius of the duodenum. A recent review of the literature has been able to find only 32 cases of pyeloduodenal fistulae. Not one was reported to involve an ectopic kidney. The authors shortly discuss the clinical diagnostical, pathological and therapeutical aspects of the case, considering its peculiar anatomical position.
