Abstract
Multicystic dysplastic kidney is a congenital kidney malformation
consisting of multiple cysts of various sizes without a normal
kidney morphology. Incontinentia pigmenti is a rare X-linked
dominant genodermatosis, which is usually lethal in males, that
presents clinically in 4 stages. Here, we report a case of multicystic
dysplastic kidney with ureterovesical junction obstruction and
incontinentia pigmenti. Coexistence of these two rare diseases
may be a coincidental phenomenon or an association between the
two may exist.
