摘要

双肾脏是一种罕见的先天性畸形，其特征是肾脏有双重排尿功能，通常是在放射成像或尸检过程中偶然发现的。我们报告了一例在道路交通事故中受伤致死的 21 岁男性病例。尸检意外发现左侧有双肾。我们讨论了双肾的临床和潜在医学法律意义，这对肾移植也有影响。值得注意的是，考虑到双肾的罕见发病率，双肾的存在有可能成为法医调查中的识别标志。

Duplex kidney: An incidental autopsy finding of clinical and medico-legal significance.

Duplex kidney, a rare congenital anomaly characterised by dual urinary drainage from the kidney, is typically discovered incidentally, often during radiological imaging or autopsy procedures. We report a case of a 21-year-old male who died from injuries sustained in a road traffic accident. The autopsy examination showed an incidental finding of duplex kidney on the left side. We discuss the clinical and potential medico-legal significance of duplex kidney which also has implications in renal transplantation. Notably, the presence of duplex kidney can potentially serve as an identifier in forensic investigations, given its rare incidence.
