Abstract

Metaplastic changes in the urothelium of the upper urinary tract are relatively infrequent. We report an interesting and rare case of KDSM of the kidney with the involvement of entire renal parenchyma including the major and minor calyces and upper ureter in a 38 year old lady presenting with renal staghorn calculi and end stage renal disease. We also reviewed the etiopathogenesis of this condition.
