Six cases of intrathoracic kidneys are reported: 1 bilateral; 1 on the right and associated with dextrocardia and possible right lung hypoplasia; the other 3 cases being on the left. Only 1 case on the left presented with symptoms that could be attributed to the intrathoracic kidney. The clinical features, associated anomalies, and diagnostic methods are discussed. Our cases include the 3rd case to be diagnosed by computerized tomography, the 4th case of bilateral intrathoracic kidneys and the 2nd case to be associated with dextrocardia.
