25 year-old pregnant woman was admitted at week 29 of fetal development for routine ultrasonic evaluation of growth. Sonography of the fetal body revealed two cystic anechoic septated structures bilaterally. At autopsy of the stillborn neonate pathology confirmed congenital multicystic dysplastic kidney. We believe this is the first case reported.

Hydroa vacciniforme lymphoproliferative disorders (HVLPD) fall within the clinical spectrum of chronic active epstein barr virus (EBV) disease (CAEBVD), ranging from localised and/or indolent forms (classic HVLPD) to systemic disease with fever, hepatosplenomegaly and lymphadenopathy (systemic HVLPD). A preadolescent male with 47XYY, multicystic dysplastic kidney, autism spectrum disorder and Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) presented with photodistributed non-pruritic, non-painful necrotic papulovesicles accompanied by non-febrile intermittent fatigue and lymphadenopathy. The patient had a history of EBV pneumonia in infancy confirmed by CT scan and was later diagnosed with CAEBV.

Background: Patients diagnosed with congenital kidney malformations are at an increased risk of developing hypertension, proteinuria, and progressing to chronic kidney disease (CKD). The present study aimed to determine the frequency of masked hypertension and ambulatory arterial stiffness index (AASI) in patients with congenital kidney malformations.
Methods: The study included 174 patients with congenital kidney malformations (48 patients with unilateral renal agenesis (URA), 40 patients with ectopic kidney (EK), 36 patients with horseshoe kidney (HK), 31 patients with multicystic dysplastic kidney (MCDK), 19 patients with unilateral renal hypoplasia (URH), and 45 healthy controls.
Prenatal diagnosis of left multicystic dysplastic kidney (MCDK) and ureterocele was made in a male fetus at 24-week gestation. The initial postnatal course was uneventful. At 4 weeks of age, he developed urosepsis and respiratory distress.

Multicystic dysplastic kidney (MCDK) is a congenital renal disease characterized by variable-sized noncommunicative cysts, impeding parenchymal development and functionality. Renal capabilities are relative to the functionality of the contralateral kidney and response to management. Unilateral and isolated cases are often asymptomatic with more positive outcomes, while severe bilateral derangements have a high mortality rate.
