description The horseshoe kidney is the most frequent genitourinary fusion abnormality. The horseshoe kidney is a combination of the anatomical abnormalities of ectopia and malrotation. Along with other anomalies, it is linked to malrotations, fluctuating blood flow, high ureter insertion, a tendency to establish a ureteropelvic junction, and blockage in up to one-third of patients, and these are all symptoms of this condition. Kidney calculus and pelvic ureteric junction (PUJ) obstruction are one of horseshoe kidneys' most prevalent side effects and are seen in approximately one-third of the patients. In our case report, we discuss the treatment of a 61-year-old male patient who had been complaining of abdominal pain for the past few years, was found to have a horseshoe kidney, a history of recurrent renal calculi with a non-functioning right side portion, and recurrent urinary tract infections (UTI) treated with open surgery. The patient symptomatically alleviated his symptoms at the three-month follow-up after open surgery; there were no complaints of discomfort or abdominal fullness, and the patient resumed daily routines.
