TY - CHAP M1 - Book, Section TI - Chapter 32. Disorders of the Kidneys A1 - McAninch, Jack W. A2 - McAninch, Jack W. A2 - Lue, Tom F. PY - 2013 T2 - Smith & Tanagho's General Urology, 18e AB - Congenital anomalies occur more frequently in the kidney than in any other organ. Some cause no difficulty, but many (eg, hypoplasia, polycystic kidneys) cause impairment of renal function. It has been noted that children with a gross deformity of an external ear associated with ipsilateral maldevelopment of the facial bones are apt to have a congenital abnormality of the kidney (eg, ectopy, hypoplasia) on the same side as the visible deformity. Lateral displacement of the nipples has been observed in association with bilateral renal hypoplasia.
