BACKGROUND: Pelvic dystopia of rudimentary multicystic dysplastic kidney as a rare cause of bedwetting in children. CASE PRESENTATION: We report the case of a 14-year-old Kazakh girl who presented with difficulty in starting the stream of urine and intermittent interruption of the urinary stream while voiding as well as bedwetting, caused by a rare congenital disease (pelvic dystopia of rudimentary multicystic dysplastic kidney). The diagnostic workup, differential diagnosis, and management, and a review of the literature are presented. Persistent since she was 2 years old, bedwetting was stressful for both the parents and child. Initially detected radiologically and endoscopically, a bladder mass was thought suspicious for ureterocele, papilloma, or mixed tumor of the urinary bladder, but surprisingly, turned out to be a pelvic dystopia of the rudimentary multicystic dysplastic kidney. Transvesical excision of this mass was performed. CONCLUSIONS: The purpose of this case report is to draw attention to the fact that a persistent case of bedwetting which does not respond to conventional therapy should be subject to further examinations to exclude surgical causes of the disease.
