Horseshoe kidneys, a common renal fusion anomaly, can provide a useful solution to the ever-increasing gap between supply and demand. Materials and Methods: These kidneys can be transplanted, en bloc, into a single recipient or divided and transplanted into 2 recipients. Results: We report 2 cases of successful kidney transplants. Conclusions: The first is a split horseshoe kidney, transplanted into a single recipient, and the second, a horseshoe kidney from a donor after cardiac death split and transplanted into a single recipient. The second case is the first reported case of a horseshoe kidney transplant from a donor after cardiac death. We also performed a review of the literature of horseshoe kidneys with the hope of raising awareness of the necessity and promise of such transplants.en-USSurgeryDonorCongenitalAnomalyArticle81
