Abstract
In this case, we have presented that a patient has fanconi aplastic anemia with pancakes kidney in scintigraphy and ultrasonography. The patient is 10 years old and a girl who fanconi aplastic anemia had been diagnosed since three years. In physical examination her general status is good. There was not left hand thumb and she had double the distal phalanx in his right hand thumb in her inspection. We observed 2/6 systolic murmur in cardiovascular system examination. Other systems were natural. Abdominal ultrasonography was observed that both the kidney were ectopic location and fused view in the left lower quadrant. Similarly in Tc-99m DTPA and DMSA renal scintigraphy, both kidneys were fused and in the left hemipelvis. The right kidney function were significantly lower by comparison with the left kidney functions. Radiological imaging is necessary in patients with Fanconi aplastic anemia without present clinical symptoms. The renal ultrasonography is important for determining pancakes. In addition, static and dynamic renal scintigraphy plays an important role in revealing the functional status of the kidneys
