Abstract

A supernumerary kidney is extremely rare, with less than 100 cases currently reported in the literature. When this variant is present, the additional renal parenchyma demonstrates its own collecting system, vascular supply, and distinct encapsulated parenchyma. Herein, we discuss the case of a supernumerary kidney in a 20-year-old male.
