  • Title: [Intrathoracic kidney in childhood with special reference to secondary renal transport in Bochdalek's hernia].
    Author: Pfister-Goedeke L, Brunier E.
    Journal: Helv Paediatr Acta; 1979 Sep; 34(4):345-57. PubMed ID: 521300.
    Abstract:
    Three cases of thoracic renal ectopia are described. Remarkable is the case of an "acquired" congenital right diaphragmatic hernia (Bochdalek's herniation) with previously normally positioned kidneys. Classification is as follows: 1. real thoracic ectopia with normally developed closed diaphragm, 2. eventration of the diaphragm (relaxatio diaphragmatica), 3. diaphragmatic hernia: a) congenital diaphragmatic defects, b) acquired herniation (Bochdalek's). 4. traumatic rupture of the diaphragm with renal ectopia.
